Fakta

In the insightful treatise "How to Form a Library, 2nd ed," Henry B. Wheatley articulates the principles and practices essential for the establishment and organization of personal libraries. This revised edition showcases Wheatley's enduring belief in the transformative power of books and the importance of thoughtful curation. The work is imbued with a practical, yet elegant prose style, reflecting the Victorian intellectual zeitgeist, where the diffusion of knowledge through literature was held in high esteem. Wheatley skillfully combines bibliographic guidance with philosophical musings on the nature of literature, providing readers with both theoretical and hands-on advice. Henry B. Wheatley, a distinguished bibliophile and librarian in 19th-century England, dedicated his life to the promotion of literature and bibliographic scholarship. His own extensive experience and passion for collecting books undoubtedly influenced the creation of this seminal work. Wheatley's efforts to democratize knowledge through the personal library resonate with his professional commitment to library science and education, which were pivotal in an era marked by rapid industrial and cultural changes. This book is essential for bibliophiles, scholars, and educators alike. Wheatley'Äôs meticulous approach offers insights that are not only practical but also philosophically enriching, encouraging readers to reflect on the role of books in their lives. Whether curating a modest collection or an extensive library, readers will find Wheatley'Äôs guidance indispensable.
