This master thesis aims to investigate the presence of women in the narratives about the history of books, particularly their activity in the field of printing with movable type and, specifically, within the conjuncture of the private press movement, at the beginning of the twentieth century, in Central Europe and the United States. First, some considerations will be made about the invention of the typographic technique, as well as some of its peculiarities. Next, a brief contextualization will be made about the participation of women in the printing business in the West, in order to demonstrate how numerous and active they have been in the field, since the advent of the printed book, in the middle of the 15th century. Afterwards, the emphasis will fall on the passage from the nineteenth to the twentieth century, to direct the focus of the work to the historical moment in which what later became known as the private press movement emerged. In the sequence, we will focus on the practices situated between writing and printing, common in the context of this movement, and highlight four cases of women who operated their own private presses, alone or with others
