Download Ancient Libraries Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The circulation of books was the motor of classical civilization. However, books were both expensive and rare, and so libraries - private and public, royal and civic - played key roles in articulating intellectual life. This collection, written by an international team of scholars, presents a fundamental reassessment of how ancient libraries came into being, how they were organized and how they were used. Drawing on papyrology and archaeology, and on accounts written by those who read and wrote in them, it presents new research on reading cultures, on book collecting and on the origins of monumental library buildings. Many of the traditional stories told about ancient libraries are challenged. Few were really enormous, none were designed as research centres, and occasional conflagrations do not explain the loss of most ancient texts. But the central place of libraries in Greco-Roman culture emerges more clearly than ever.

Download Kallimachos Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The famous library of Alexandria, founded around 295 BCE by Ptolemaios I, housed the greatest collection of texts in the ancient world and was a fertile site of Hellenistic scholarship. Rudolf Blum’s landmark study, originally published in German in 1977, argues that Kallimachos of Kyrene was not only the second director of the Alexandrian library but also the inventor of two essential scholarly tools still in use to this day: the library catalog and the “biobibliographical” reference work. Kallimachos expanded the library’s inventory lists into volumes called the Pinakes, which extensively described and categorized each work and became in effect a Greek national bibliography and the source and paradigm for most later bibliographic lists of Greek literature. Though the Pinakes have not survived, Blum attempts a detailed reconstruction of Kallimachos’s inventories and catalogs based on a careful analysis of surviving sources, which are presented here in full translation.

Download Greeks, Books and Libraries in Renaissance Venice Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
What does writing Greek books mean at the height of the Cinquecento in Venice? The present volume provides fascinating insights into Greek-language book production at a time when printed books were already at a rather advanced stage of development with regards to requests, purchases and exchanges of books; copying and borrowing practices; relations among intellectuals and with institutions, and much more. Based on the investigation into selected institutional and private libraries – in particular the book collection of Gabriel Severos, guide of the Greek Confraternity in Venice – the authors present new pertinent evidence from Renaissance books and documents, discuss methodological questions, and propose innovative research perspectives for a sociocultural approach to book histories.

Download The Ancient Laws of Norway and Iceland: A Bibliography (Classic Reprint) Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Excerpt from The Ancient Laws of Norway and Iceland: A Bibliography For other sources concerning the early law and institutions of these two countries, I can refer to the two Saga bibliographies previously issued; in the present work I have included only such commentaries on the Sagas as deal directly with legal questions. When dealing with so wide a subject as the history of law, which enters into all human relations it is sometimes diflicult to draw the line between the historical works to be included and those which may be omitted. I trust, however, that I have succeeded in covering here all important contributions to the subject, or that there are, at least, not many serious omissions. General histories of the countries and of the church, such as those by Munch, Melsted, Maurer, Keyser and others, have been included, as they treat at length of the law, while works of a popular character have usually been disregarded.
