Book of books
The publisher Denes, has published the book “ Book of Books”, as a part of its collection Calabria. In that book there are 300 tales and curiosities related to books. The selection and the writing have been done by Enrique Gallud Jardiel, who has dedicated several paragraphs to tell anecdotes about libraries, like the story about The Pope Gregorio VII,who in order to promote the reading of The Bible, burned the Apolo Palatino’s Library for the other readings not to distract readers from The Bible; The story about the librarian who was said good bye for being inmoral, because he put together works wrote by men and works wrote by women; as well as the fact that the Leonardo Da Vinci’s Library had only 37 volumes.
