An interesting overview to some of the key themes and main points in the story of libraries (and documents) that follows a relatively traditional path. Easy to read and whilst not an academic text (it's described as a story not a history) has notes for direct quotations and large bibliography to follow up for those who want to dig deeper into episodes and debates than this kind of grand narrative approach can allow. ( ) El autor ha volcado en esta obra el resultado de años de investigación y consulta sobre trabajos de arqueólogos e historiadores apasionados por el singular fenómeno de la cultura llamado biblioteca. El relevamiento de sistemas de registro y de catalogación de libros, y el conocimiento de las metodologías de las más importantes bibliotecas del mundo, hacen de este autor, uno de los académicos que más han ahondado en la dinámica y usos de ina institución dedicada a guardar la memoria de la humanidad.
This is a very important book for any academic library collection that serves library and information science students and for liberal arts programs that focus on cultural and social history. Summing Up: Highly recommended.
This work describes the crucial role libraries played in ancient Egypt, Han-dynasty China, the ancient Western Classical world (the great library of Alexandria, which was lost to us in stages over many years), the Baghdad of Harun-al-Rashid, and medieval and Renaissance Europe. It continues with the libraries of colonial America, the Library of Congress, university libraries, and today's large public library system. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
