The temple of knowledge is a millennium old building, in fact as
old as history, which is rebuilt each day. It is formed by the
thought, memory and imagination of people. It is a great collective
work, starting from walls of rock, clay tablets, manuscripts and
papers. It has been maintained by monasteries, universities,
scientific societies peopled by all sorts of daring and tenacious
individuals, authors, scholars, researchers and librarians. Until
now, this temple has managed to survive savagery and horror in the
refuge of our archives and libraries. From now on, this temple is
going to be in the air, based on intangible ones and zeros. In a
sense, these are not grounded - not anywhere. But they nevertheless
incubate the greatest transformation in history: a revolution
carried in silence, but long in consequences that will transform
our habits of reading and writing, and ultimately our ways of
knowing.
