Very
significant as well are the holdings from the 17th and 18th
centuries.
The 17th century
collection gathers few but important literary works, shown at the
recent Spanish theater exposition.
One these works is the
only copy in Spain of the ¨Segunda parte de las comedias¨ of Calderon
(Madrid, 1637).
There is
however,
a large group of works from this century regarding subjects such as
Law, Theology, Geography, Mathematics or Medicine.
The Library treasures books
produced by the most determinant Spanish printers
from the
18th century,
such as Ibarra, Sancha and Monfort. There is also an exceptional
collection of
foreign scientific and medical works.
