Abstract

READERS of The English Review, in the good days when literature took precedence of politics in its pages, may recall a fascinating account of Richard de Bury, author of Philobiblon 1345, an ardent book collector, and the founder of an early lending library. The writer of the article quoted, among other lyrical passages in praise of books, one that seems specially apposite in our own distressful timesIn books I find the dead as if they are alive in books I foresee things to come in books warlike things are set forth from books come forth the laws of peace.
