The Biblioteca Comunale degli Intronati is the public library located via della Sapienza #3 of the comune of Siena, in Tuscany, Italy. ==History== The library's origins date to 1758, when the archdeacon and local economist Sallustio Bandini donated his library to the University of Siena, on condition, that it grant public access. The university at this time lacked a formal library. In 1774, the library already included 13,000 objects. In 1798 an earthquake closed the library, it soon reopened but was closed by the French in 1808, along with the University of Siena. The library was restarted by the commune in 1812, and amassed further manuscripts from the suppressed convent of Sant'Agostino. The collection over the centuries has been greatly enhanced by additional donors, including the manuscripts and designs owned by Giuseppe Ciaccheri (1724-1804), pupil of Bandini, and the first librarian of the collection. In 1786 the library received works housed in the Santa Maria della Scala (Siena), among them the precious Byzantine lectionary Gospels (designated by ℓ ''283'' on the list Gregory-Aland) already part of the treasure of the same institution (X. IV. 1).〔 In 1866, the editor Giuseppe Porri left to the library his collection of stamps, signatures, coins, medals and signature seals. In 1932 the podestà of Siena, Fabio Bargagli Petrucci, became the administrator and added his collection of public documents, and christening it with the name "Intronati", in memory of the Accademia degli Intronati of the 18th-century. Atop the entrance to the Historical Reading room of the library is a plaque with the six statutes of the old Accademia in Latin: # ''Deum colere'' (Revere God) # ''Studere'' (Study) # ''Gaudere'' (Rejoice) # ''Neminem lædere'' (Damage nobody) # ''Nemini credere'' (Believe nobody) # ''De mundo non curare'' (Worry not about the world). In the 1990s reconstruction led to designation of a specific hall. Some material of the ''Museo archeologico nazionale'', was transferred to the former monastery adjacent to Santa Maria della Scala.〔(Biblioteca Siena ) website.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Biblioteca Comunale degli Intronati, Siena」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
