<p>En la Biblioteca Pública de León se encuentra un pequeño manuscrito de la obra de Quevedo la Perinola, aunque incompleta. Escrito con letra del siglo XVIII, es uno de los casi 50 que se conservan de esta obra y fiel reflejo del modo de transmisión de la obra de Quevedo. Don Francisco de Quevedo escribió la Perinola en 1632 contra el Para todos de Pérez de Montalbán. En ella satiriza mordazmente al autor y a su obra, realizando una crítica demoledora desde el título hasta el final. De esta forma entrará Quevedo, una vez más, en la polémica personal y literaria de nuestro Siglo de Oro, en esta ocasión para oponerse al género de la miscelánea, que tanto desarrollo había tenido desde la Silva de varia lección de Mexía.</p><p>The Public Library of León keeps a short incomplete manuscript of Quevedo's work Perinola. In 18th century hand, it is one of the almost 50 surviving copies of the work, and faithfully represents the form of transmission of Quevedo's work. Don Francisco de Quevedo wrote Perinola in 1632 against Pérez de Montalbán's Para todos Ad is a mordant satire of this author and his work, devastatingly critizising it from title to end. With it Quevedo embarks once more in the personal as well as literary disputes of our Golden Century, this time to oppose the miscellany genre, which had been so widely spread since Mexía's Silva de varia lección.</p>

Recently the catalogue of printed books has been computerized and made available on the Internet.

The «Infant Jesus as Divine Love» is a noteworthy example of the exuberance reached by dressed sculptures of the Holy Child in Portugal [1]. The provenance of this 18th century sculpture is unknown1. It may have belonged to a religious institution, before being integrated in the Public Library collection. Finally, in 1915, it was incorporated in Évora’s National Museum. It is a lead sculpture, painted with very realistic flesh tones, in consonance with an elegant shape proper of a classical and erudite workmanship. In this unusual representation the Infant is holding a silver bow, arrows and a quiver, personifying Divine Love. In the left hand he holds a flower bouquet made of silk and paper.

Scientific Integration

Abstract According to Jürgen Habermas, equality amongst those of unequal social standing in 18th-century society was limited to the private sphere. Though Gottsched shows how to use this sphere strategically for private policy and cooperation, he knows how to modify his publication strategies wisely in order to achieve the greatest and best possible effectiveness in his attempt to popularise Enlightenment. By his Moralische Wochenschriften as well as by his more popular way of academic writing for students he spreads controversial ideas such as theoretical and practical reason’s primacy over theologic argumentations, the academic education of women, or female authorship. Yet, he does so prudently and expertly uses the opportunities offered by publishing anonymously or under a pseudonym to support scientific integration of women. Gottsched relied upon a variety of rhetorical strategies to introduce controversial ideas to the broader public without embracing them openly. Employing different strategies of publication, he pursued his agenda as a moral educator, promoted emancipation from religious authorities, and advanced his own brand of cultural nationalism in order to unfold and popularise the German literary tradition. He thus significantly contributed to the structural transformation of the public sphere as described by Heinrich Bosse.

While contemporary revisionist narratives frame the public library as a benevolent and neutral community resource, it has existed for over two centuries and has a deeply shaded past. Particularly, public libraries played key roles in projects tied to the industrialist mission of states and the education of select social groups during key historical times. In no uncertain terms, these were inherently racist and colonial projects in which libraries helped proffer socially constructed and politically motivated ideas of race and class. This work draws on relevant and important work in anti-oppression studies, Black studies, critical diversity studies, and Critical Race Theory (CRT) to trouble contemporary revisionist perspectives in public librarianship to show how they further entrench monocultural normativity and structural racism. It also draws on scholarship in anti-racism studies to reimagine possibilities for public librarianship that genuinely reflect its core values of equity and justice.
