History/Military The Idea of the Library in the Ancient World
Posted on 2010-03-16
|  |
More The Idea of the Library in the Ancient World By Yun Lee Too In The Idea of the Library in the Ancient World Yun Lee Too argues that the ancient library was much more than its incarnation at Alexandria, which has been the focus for students of the subject up till now. In fact, the library is a complex institution with many different forms. It can be a building with books, but it can also be individual people, or the individual books themselves. In antiquity, the library's functions are numerous: as an instrument of power, of memory, of which it has various modes; as an articulation of a political ideal, an art gallery, a place for sociality. Too indirectly raises important conceptual questions about the contemporary library, bringing to these the insights that a study of antiquity can offer. About the Author Yun Lee Too has held research fellowships at Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge and the left for Hellenic Studies, Washington and has taught at the University of Liverpool and Columbia University. She currently lives in New York City.
