History And Timeline
It's easy to imagine the first person to read in the bathtub as a nobleman trying to find out how to manage their land by reading scrolls in a bit of tub. Perhaps that joy arrived later, when tubs, indoor plumbing, and lights made the process a pleasure instead of a chore?
It's easy to see how, as books and comfort grew more accessible, this pastime became a favorite from the top to the bottom of society!
Reading in the bath originates in Roman bathtubs, the first civilization to embrace the bathing culture fully. The owners of these establishments would frequently decorate them with scrolls on the walls or complete libraries.
Bathing fell out of favor during the Middle Ages, and Roman baths were abandoned. The invention of personal, household bathrooms in the Renaissance, on the other hand, is thought to have ushered in the current age of bathtub reading.
People used whatever they could find to wipe themselves before toilet paper was invented. Leaves or bits of straw from the farm were sometimes used. The printed word, on the other hand, was used on occasion.
As a result, reading could have found its way into the restroom. Later, reading in the bathtub found its way into modern society after it was invented as waterproof smartphones meant better reading.
