Beskrivelse af Bibliomania Or Book-Madness
Bibliomania Or Book-Madness: A Bibliographical Romance is a book written by Thomas Frognall Dibdin in 1842. The book is a fictionalized account of the author's own experiences as a collector of rare books and his encounters with other bibliophiles. The term ""bibliomania"" refers to an excessive love of books, and the book explores the various forms this obsession can take. The book is divided into three parts. The first part is an introduction to the concept of bibliomania and the various types of collectors who suffer from it. The second part consists of a series of stories about different collectors and their obsessions with specific books or authors. These stories are based on real-life collectors and their collections. The third and final part of the book is a catalog of rare books and manuscripts, which includes descriptions of their physical characteristics and historical significance.Throughout the book, Dibdin provides humorous anecdotes and witty observations about the world of book collecting. He also includes illustrations and facsimiles of rare books and manuscripts. Bibliomania Or Book-Madness: A Bibliographical Romance is considered a classic work on the subject of book collecting and remains a popular read for bibliophiles and book lovers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
