2006cm. 17 x 24, 228 pp. con 6 figg. n.t. e 26 tavv. f.t. di cui 1 a colori. Biblioteca di bibliografia italiana Antonio Possevino, gesuita, fu protagonista della Controriforma in tutta Europa. Un suo carattere particolare ? l?interesse quasi maniacale per i libri, da lui donati, suggeriti, elencati, censurati, arsi sul rogo. Del Possevino l?autore fornisce dunque un ritratto ?bibliografico?, oltre che umano, alla luce dei suoi capolavori (Bibliotheca selecta e Apparatus sacer). Si aggiunge un innovativo census delle edizioni posseviniane nelle biblioteche britanniche. Informazione e persuasione divengono gli strumenti di una drammatica ?guerra dei libri? The Jesuit Antonio Possevino was a protagonist of the Counter Reformation in Europe. One of his characteristics was an obsessive interest in books, which he recommended, gave away, listed, censored or had burnt. This study provides an assessment of Possevino both from a bibliographical point of view and as a person, with reference to his two main works, Bibliotheca selecta and Apparatus sacer. There is also a novel census of editions of his works in British libraries. In Possevino?s life, information and persuasion become weapons in a dramatic ?war of books? 475 gr. 228 p.
