3 book of books 是什么用法(什么意思)

In this “book of books,” artworks are selected and arranged in a way that emphasizes these connections between different eras and cultures. We see scenes of children learning to read at home or at school, with the book as a focus for relations between the generations. Adults are portrayed (描绘) alone in many settings and poses —absorbed in a volume, deep in thought or lost in a moment of leisure. These scenes may have been painted hundreds of years ago, but they record moments we can all relate to.

book of books 的字面意思就是书中之书,也就是书中精品”“经典之作之类的意思。如:

The Bible is the book of books.《圣经》是书之经典。

又如:汉语中有时说人中之人,指的是人中俊杰”“杰出人物。如:

We admit that we are inferior to him in intelligence and ability; he is really a man of men. 我们承认我们在智力和能力上都不如他,他可真是个人物。

这里的book of books前后标上了引号,加上文章也提到这本书的主题是书(读书),所以这里的book of books倾向于理解为关于书的书、以书为主题的书——不同于固定短语Book of Books

个人意见,仅供参考。
