Bibliotecas imaginarias

Since books and libraries existed, the voices and ideas of the past have been preserved as true treasures of knowledge and pleasure. That something invisible like the language, through writing, survives in silence until a hand awakens it to the joy of the eyes and the happiness of the heart is a trap that the enduring tends to time. Imaginary Libraries by Mario Satz traces and resurrects the atmosphere of those places of study in which both rest and inspiration revealed their respective benefits to visitors. Thus, between losses, fires, theft or book donations, we go through the history of these fantastic libraries with the feeling of contemplating the whole of humanity bent on acquiring knowledge, true to itself or the enemy of its best causes. And so, more than the history of books, Mario Satz tells us that of his undeniable readers.
