Abstract


Bernabé García (1673-1752), was an apothecary, a farmer, a tax collector for Catholic Church, who lived in a rural society, but he was interested in cultural newness of his time. His modest but interesting library (about a hundred books) shows his personality. He was a profoundly religious person, a middle-class man worried to become nobleman, with preenlightened ideas and utopian’s qualities.
