Abstract

Engramma n. 198, Warburg Bibliothek is a journey through the years of Warburg Library’s life as a philosophical object and a living part of Aby Warburg's intellectual history and the survival of his thought. This issue could be seen as an anthology in which texts from the Warburgkreis about the Library are collected and presented for the first time in Italian translation. The first essays are from the Hamburg period: Fritz Saxl in Das Nachleben der Antike Zur Einfühurung in die Bibliothek Warburg (1921), first italian translation, edited by Michela Maguolo, La sopravvivenza dell’antico. Introduzione alla Biblioteca Warburg, briefly summarises the salient aspects of the Warburg Library, highlighting a multidisciplinary approach to the study of Antiquity; Saxl’s Die Bibliothek Warburg und ihr Ziel (1923), first Italian translation, edited by Michela Maguolo, La biblioteca Warburg e il suo fine, explains the particular approach to the history of the survival of Antiquity; Die Kulturwissenschaftliche Bibliothek Warburg in Hamburg (1930), first Italian translation, edited by Michela Maguolo, La Kulturwissenschaftliche Bibliothek Warburg in Amburgo (1930) is a brief presentation of the Hamburg Institute. Other essays are from the British period: Notes on the Warburg Library (1934), first Italian translation, edited by Giulia Zanon, Appunti sulla Biblioteca Warburg, Appunti sulla biblioteca Warburg (1934) is written by Gertrud Bing in the aftermath of the arrival of the Warburg Library in London.
