Best Answer

The invention of the printing press in 1440 made producing books easier, which increased the number of books available. Greater wealth from the rising middle class meant more leisure time to read and learn (which is why it started in Italy, where the city-states had naval access to the Mediterranean Sea, which made travel and trade much easier). Also, the increase of the use of the vernacular allowed people who didn't know Latin to read.
