Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Thanks to the printing press and the timely power of his message, Luther became the world’s first best-selling author. Luther’s translation of the New Testament into German sold 5, 000 copies in just two weeks.
Detailed explanation-2: -The printing revolution did not cause the Reformation. But the movable-type printing press produced many more copies of religious writings critical of the Catholic Church than would have been possible before Gutenberg’s invention.
