What was communication like in the 1400s?

In the 1400s, communication was primarily oral and involved face-to-face interactions, as written communication was limited to the literate elite. The invention of the printing press by Johannes Gutenberg around 1440 revolutionized written communication by enabling the mass production of books and pamphlets, which facilitated the spread of information. Letters were commonly used for longer-distance communication, but they were slow due to reliance on messengers. Overall, communication was more localized and less instantaneous compared to modern standards.
