In a great writer, such as the Quevedo of Los sueiios, disillusion becomes a total world-view. In common with his contemporaries, he fails to realize the disastrous implications of the trading deficit, economic inflation as a result of importing silver from America, the intellectual stranglehold of the Jesuits, and the peculiar delusions of military supremacy that induce Olivares to rekindle the fires of war in the 'Low Countries. His social awareness is, typically, undeveloped. But he realizes the malaise behind these symptoms, and strives to root out hypocrisy from Spain. To this end he will not allow his voice to be shouted down, using as his principal vehicle for satire the varied phantasmagoria of Los suenos.

Per questo motivo ho pensato di riordinare questo elenco bibliografico sulle bibliografie della Libia. Come appare dall'elenco, che non e scevro da lacune a causa di qual- che opera bibliografica a noi non nota, le pubblicazioni dal 1841 al 1968 ammontano a 87, e si presentano in sei lingue diverse: l'arabo, il francese, l'inglese, l'italiano, il latino e il tedesco. La maggior parte di esse - com'e naturale - e redatta in lingua italiana (57 opere).
