The De bibliothecis proved to be a seminal achievement, both in redefining the scope of library history and in articulating a vision of a public, secular, research institution for the humanities. It was repeatedly reprinted and translated, plagiarized and epitomized. Through the end of the nineteenth century, scholars turned to it as the ultimate foundation for any discussion of library history. In Ancient Libraries and Renaissance Humanism , Hendrickson presents a critical edition of Lipsius?s work with introductory studies, a Latin text, English translation, and a substantial historical commentary. 410 0$aBrill's Studies in Intellectual History$v265/20. 606 $aLibraries$xHistory$yTo 400 606 $aHumanism$zEurope$xHistory$y16th century 606 $aRenaissance 607 $aEurope$xIntellectual life$y16th century 615 0$aLibraries$xHistory 615 0$aHumanism$xHistory 615 0$aRenaissance. 676 $a027.009 700 $aHendrickson$b Thomas$0754592 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910792733103321 996 $aAncient libraries and Renaissance Humanism$91518514 997 $aUNINA
