Starting as early as 300 BCE, the Ptolomaic kings who ruled Alexandria had the inspired idea of luring leading scholars, scientists, and poets to their city by offering them life appointments at the Museum, with handsome salaries, tax exemptions, free food and lodging, and the almost limitless resources of the library.
kamen die ptolemäischen Könige, die damals in Alexandria regierten, auf die glorreiche Idee, führende Gelehrte, Naturforscher und Dichter in ihre Stadt zu locken, indem sie ihnen eine lebenslange Stellung im Museum anboten, dazu stattliche Bezüge, Steuerbefreiung, kostenlose Verpflegung und Logis und obendrein die nahezu grenzenlosen Ressourcen der Bibliothek.
