In books I find the dead as if they were alive; in books I foresee things to come; in books warlike affairs are set forth; from books come forth the laws of peace.

All things are corrupted and decay in time; Saturn ceases not to devour the children that he generates; all the glory of the world would be buried in oblivion, unless God had provided mortals with the remedy of books.


~ Richard de Bury, Philobiblon, 1339

The Love of Books: The Philobiblon of Richard de Bury 

by Richard de Bury (Author), E. C. Thomas (Translator)

A century before the printing press was invented, Richard de Bury was an avid collector of books. His Philobiblon "described methods of acquiring books; he rhapsodized on the wisdom they contained; he discussed their various subjects and he lectured on their proper care. He expressed his concern for the follies of mankind that damage or destroy the priceless tomes, and he encouraged the production of new works as well as the preservation of the old."

Richard de Bury, an English writer, bibliophile, Benedictine monk and bishop, was a patron of learning and one of the first English collectors of books. He is chiefly remembered for his Philobiblon (1339), written to inculcate in the clergy the pursuit of learning and the love of books. As a Benedictine monk he became tutor to the future King Edward III (whom he would later serve as high chancellor and treasurer of England) and inspired the prince with his own love of books.

Books are masters who instruct us without rods or ferules, without words or anger, without bread or money. If you approach them, they are not asleep; if you seek them, they do not hide; if you blunder, they do not scold; if you are ignorant, they do not laugh at you.

~ Richard de Bury, Philobiblon, 1339
