What ancient learning lies within these clever-clog blocks?
这些精致的方块中到底蕴含着什么古老的学问呢？
Bookshelves are expensive things to create. But you can’t put a price on wisdom, can you? Besides which, in Minecraft at least, they add a bit of colour to a room and enhance the power of nearby enchanting tables!
书架的制作成本十分高昂，但智慧无价，不是吗？至少在Minecraft中，它能给一间房屋带来绚丽的色彩，也能增加附近附魔台的能力！
They are mighty hungry for resources, though: each bookshelf block consists of six wooden plank blocks and three books (each of which requires three sheets of paper and a leather hide).
制作它们需要消耗很多资源：每个书架由六块木板和三本书合成（每本书需要三张纸和一个皮革）。
Sure, once created, those three books have transformed into a veritable library which textures four faces of your bookshelf. But to really build out your collection, you’ll need to invest in an entire farmstead dedicated to cultivating cattle for the leather and sugar cane for the paper. Best build it near a forest, too, for all that wood you’ll need.
当然，一旦合成出来，这三本书已经变成了一个名副其实的书库，为你的书架的四个面提供了纹理。但要建立起你的藏书库，你需要专门养牛来获得皮革和甘蔗来生产纸张。最好把它建在森林附近，因为你会需要大量的木材。
Here's how to bind a book together:
这是合成书籍的方法：
And here's how to bash a bookshelf into being:
下面是合成书架的方法：
Quite an outlay! No wonder that, for so much of human history, books were considered a sign of great wealth. Prior to the invention and popularisation of the printing press five hundred-ish years ago, each book had to be written by hand, too, making them even rarer and more valuable!
这是一笔不小的开支！难怪在人类历史的大部分时间里，书籍被认为是财富的象征。在五百多年前印刷术的发明和普及之前，每本书都必须用手写，这使得它们更加稀少，更加珍贵。
Europeans didn’t even have paper until the middle-ages: paper was invented by the Chinese around 200 BC, but it took a long time for the invention to filter through the great Arabic civilisations and over to Europe. About 1400 years, in fact. We’re slow learners, I guess. Instead, us Euros wrote on vellum - a term which usually refers to the specially prepared skin of calves, but sheep, goats and sometimes even cats were used.
欧洲人甚至在中世纪才有纸：纸是由中国人在公元前200年左右发明的，但这一发明花了很长时间才传到阿拉伯文明和欧洲，大约用了1400年。我想，可能我们学得很慢。以前，欧洲人在牛皮纸上写字——这个术语通常指专门准备的牛皮，但也有使用绵羊皮、山羊皮，有时甚至是猫皮。
Minecraft opts to use paper for the bulk of its pulp, so at least your ocelot can rest easy!
不过我的世界的纸选择使用纸浆，至少你的豹猫可以安心睡觉了！
