The journey to find a book is also a journey of returning to the countryside

The book was extremely rare, and fascinated the most powerful people. Nowadays, countless books have been printed every day. The birth of books and the history of changes in books is also a history of development of human civilization. In "The History of Books", the Spanish female writer Yiliannene Papaleho searched all the way and answered "when did the book appear? Which books are always lost? Which books can be survived? "And many problems, telling the legend related to books.

To travel to Egypt, it must not be missed. It must be the Alexander Library.

One of the oldest libraries in the world was built in Po-Ptolem I (about 367-BC 283 BC). It was destroyed in 415 AD. The disappearing Alexander Library did not really erase from people's hearts. It leaves a permanent book civilization and library culture for humans, which is moving.

The Spanish female writer Ichinne Barlord, in order to pursue the past and present life of the civilization of ancient Greek and Roman books, imagine himself as a "hunting book" who runs the secret cross -sea mission of Egypt's secret cross -sea on the road of dangerous turbulence in ancient Europe: Go to Alexander Library to find a book. She chased all the way and tried to answer "When did the book appear? What kind of unknown books or destroyed books have happened in history? Which books have been lost forever? Which books can survive?"

Ichinne Barlho believes that a book must be written to complete this great answer. "The History of Books" (Hunan Literature and Art Publishing House, April 2022), which was born.

If the statement is a container for storage time, then Palestine's book search journey is the road to home. With a book, you have an eternal spiritual home.

We are all children's children

If there is no Bakleho's book, we will not know that when the brave and good Alexander Emperor sleeps, a book "Iliate" will always be placed on the pillow. His dream is not only unifying Greece, conquering Egypt, destroying the Persian Achiened dynasty, and establishing the Alexander Empire. He also wants to build a library and collect books around the world.

Alexander's dream was realized in the hands of his best friend Ptolemy I. He reprimanded the construction of the Alexander Museum and Library. Egypt was an important exporter of the most commonly used writing materials that year, and had unique conditions for building the museum. The grass paper, in Egypt, is the same as Pharaoh. This means that mastering writing is like mastering the right.

It is a bit ridiculous to say that the source of books from the Alexander Library is a bit ridiculous. Ptolemy dispatched customs officers to rob the merchant ships in various places. As long as you see the book, take it away. After copying it by the writer, leave the original, and return it to the merchant ship. In the long run, before being replaced by Rome, Alexander Port was always the center of multinational civilization. The library was like a lighthouse to illuminate the coast.

Before printing the invention, each book was unique. At that time, grass paper was as precious as oil. As a result, people began to try to write text on various animal skin. After many improvements, sheepskin paper was born. In the Alexander Library, each manuscript will be treated as a crafts from paper to copying. If the readers still think that since there is an e -book, why should I publish paper books, so I may wish to think about how the books that exist as art have come to this day.

When there is no book, humans have not given up the knowledge of communication. Initially spreading, relying on bard poets. They walked on the streets and chanted all places in the way of poetry. Our ancient poets and Japanese feet wandering are responsible for this mission.

When the poet learned to write, they began to write their memories on the grass paper, which was the original prose. Thinking of the origin of the book, I understand why the Nobel Prize in Literature will send the 2016 awards to Bob Dylan. He is the incarnation of ancient bard poets, and today's lyrics and songs are an important part of the literary world.

However, Socrates was worried about the loss of spoken knowledge. In that case, he lost the skill of recitation. At the same time, he gave up his efforts. His worry is unreasonable. Our memory today has a certain place in the mobile phone. What we remember is the storage position, not the knowledge itself, how regrettable it is.

But since we have a book, at least we have the door to knowledge. Regardless of how the books are burned and prohibited, we still have lovers to store it in memory. As the author said in the book: "The text keeps the past, and the memory is kept by the persecution."

In a sense, all readers have a private secret library hidden in their hearts, and the words in it have left marks in our lives. We finally know that we are all children of books.

Female image in reading

In ancient Greece, only noble children had the right to literacy and education. However, a smart disciple in Plato asked someone to make a copy of the teacher's work and sold it on the Xixi Island by boat. The bookstore came into being.

British female writer Penelope Fitzjerad wrote a novel "Bookstore". A.S. Bayeut said Fitzgerald's style is closest to Jane Austin. The novel tells the story of a young widowed woman in the late 1950s. With the only property, a story of the only bookstore on the island decided to open the only bookstore on the island. A woman, a bookstore, is unimaginable during the ancient Greek period. But in the history of human books, women have never been invisible. From the 3rd century BC to the 1st century BC, within the scope of European territory in ancient Greece, some schools clearly stated that "basic education is equal to boys and girls." Many cities in Aegean and Asia Minor provided the daughters of rich families with daughters of rich families. More and more education opportunities.

Spanish female poet Gloolia Fayers once said, "God makes me a poet, but I make myself a book administrator." At the beginning of the 20th century, after the Alexander Library, the book that has been monopolized by men has been The administrator began to transition to women. But because only single women could work at that time, everyone usually imagined this group as a "old girl" who had not married for a long time. However, the facts are just the opposite. In Spain after the civil war, these female book administrators are modern and avant -garde, and they are the female pioneers in the University of Spain.

Even in the history of writing, there are many women. As the only female poet in ancient Greek literature, Safei has the same name as Homer. Her poetry is gentle and elegant, and is very suitable for singing with Qixianqin, which is loved by women. At that time, many young women came to Lesbo and learned to learn under her door. When the ruler of Athens heard the poem of Sayo, he insisted on asking for singing, and said, "As long as I can learn this song, there is no regret to die."

In the history of literature, women also have unexpected opening methods: the first writer who signed in his own text in the world is a woman. She was Er Anna, a poet and female priest who had been earlier than Hema for 1,500 years. Now, the poem she has created is still echoing in the Psalm of the Bible. She is known as "Samel Literature Female Shakespeare."

Papaleho wrote in the book: "They can't participate in banquets, sports competitions or participate in political affairs. What can they do? Reserve memories. Just like those nanny and grandmother who talks about Green's fairy tales. Passing on the ground. They also create poetry for the female choir (wedding songs, respect for god songs, dance). They write about themselves in poetry, sing alone, and use Riraqin to accompany. "

To this day, we can still find the name of the school girls recorded in the 2nd century BC in the 2 century BC in the 2 century BC. They are the winners of the school reading competition and calligraphy competition. They may be Sayo later, or the female poet Dkinson, a female poet thousands of years later.

We should know that in the history of human beings, there have been countless women in succession and bravely defeat the ignorance. The female image in reading is shining from history to the present.

In October 2002, the New Alexander Library was grandly opened at the original site of the old library. We seem to see that the Roman city in 350 AD was a city with 29 libraries. The public welfare spirit of the library has been continuing. Because of books, the best thoughts created by humans can be preserved. Because of the library, human wisdom can open to humans fairly, let people learn and learn.

Book is the life of human beings. Reading can continue their lives to humans.
