Why are many monarchs and popes keen on building magnificent libraries in western history? Because the library is the habitat of the soul, because it has preserved the crystallization of human wisdom for thousands of years, we can find the answers to the questions that plague us or some useful enlightenment from it.

The role of the library is not limited to this. Before the spread of modern paper and printing, the media of wisdom spread from Sumerian clay tablets engraved with cuneiform characters invented by ancient Egyptians to parchment of Pagama Kingdom. Books made with these media need to invest a lot of manpower and material resources, and buying these books also needs to consume a lot of financial resources. Even so, you will find that in western history, many monarchs and popes love books and spend a lot of money to build magnificent libraries.

What does the library mean to a person? The famous Argentine writer Borges once said, "I secretly imagine that heaven should be like a library." In the west, heaven is a bright and sacred place that people have been pursuing all their lives, but Borges has turned this last place that everyone wants to go into a library. The "Soul Sanatorium" at the entrance of the convent of St Gallen Library in Switzerland originated from Theodore in Sicily, a first-century ancient Greek historian. Used to describe the study of Pharaoh Ramses II of Egypt 19 dynasty. Ramses II was the most prosperous period in the history of ancient Egypt.

For ordinary people and the most powerful Pharaoh in ancient Egypt, the library is the habitat of the soul, because the books collected here are the crystallization of thousands of years of human wisdom, from which we can find the answers to our problems or some useful enlightenment. However, the role of the library is not limited to this. Before modern paper spread in newspapers and periodicals, the media of wisdom ranged from Sumerian clay tablets engraved with cuneiform characters, to papyrus invented by ancient Egyptians, and then to parchment of pagan kingdom. Books produced by these media need a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources to buy these books, but even so, you will find that the most famous monarchs and popes in western history like to collect books and spend a lot of money to build magnificent libraries.
