Bibliography (from and ), as a discipline, is traditionally the academic study of books as physical, cultural objects; in this sense, it is also known as bibliology (from ). English author and bibliographer John Carter describes ''bibliography'' as a word having two senses: one, a list of books for further study or of works consulted by an author (or enumerative bibliography); the other one, applicable for collectors, is "the study of books as physical objects" and "the systematic description of books as objects" (or descriptive bibliography). Etymology The word was used by Greek writers in the first three centuries CE to mean the copying of books by hand. In the 12th century, the word started being used for "the intellectual activity of composing books." The 17th century then saw the emergence of the modern meaning, that of description of books. Currently, the field of bibliography has expanded to include studies that consider the book as a material object. Bibliography, in ...

Peter Seewald
Peter Seewald (born July 10, 1954, in Bochum) is a German journalist and author with a focus on religious topics, especially on Pope Benedict XVI. Life Peter Seewald grew up in Salzweg near Passau in Lower Bavaria in a Catholic family. His originally close religious ties - as a boy he was chief altar server in his home parish - gave way early on to an attitude critical of the church in the course of the 1968 Movement, during which he became a supporter of Marxism and which led to his leaving the church in 1973. In the summer of 1976 he founded the left-liberal weekly newspaper ''Passauer Kleine Zeitung'' in Passau, which was discontinued two years later, in spring 1978. Seewald was an editor at ''Der Spiegel'' from 1981 to 1987 and a reporter at ''Stern'' from 1987 to 1990. He then moved to the magazine of the ''Süddeutsche Zeitung'', which he left in 1993. Since then he has been a freelance journalist. After leaving the Catholic church, he continued to devote himself to relig ...
