 learned a new word today

- peripatetic 
 Old books have so many words I’ve never heard of. We’ve been dumbed down so much. 
 talking about books, it was a word i learned from a 20-30 page long text i am reading today for my political philosophy class, and there was this paragraph about Johannes Grammaticus and the Library of Alexandria

Grammaticus was there described as peripatetic 
 How would you use it?
