| dc.description.abstract |
Aristotle’s scientific method shifted the purpose of library collections from a paradigm of cultural/political maintenance to one of theoretical knowledge creation. In spite of its modified role, the “post-Aristotelian library” ultimately served a conservative socio-political function as pre-Alexandrian information institutions. This study examines the intellectual basis of the academic library as a tool for control and argues that the post-Aristotelian library is a tool for entrenching hegemony. |
