MARTIN SARMIENTO’S LIBRARY. DISTINGUISHING TO UNITE
Abstract
We study the catalogue of Sarmiento’s library written by the author, especially its thematic planning and the layout of books within each subject. We also relate this to other classification systems proposed by him. Finally, we offer an overview of the composition of the library according to the five major classes in which science was divided in the XVIIIth century. We conclude that both arrangement of books and library composition are representative of the author himself, of his interest on the method and on scientific latest innovations, and of the fragmentation of science that characterizes the XVIIIth century.Downloads
