Each entry in this list of books is printed as a hanging indent, so the list, which is wrappable, must be enclosed in Block quotes. The last entry contains a wrappable list of its own, so that "nested" list needs its own Block quotes. Most of DP's markers and tags occur in pairs (open/close). Since the nesting results in two "open" Block quote markers, there must be two closing ones, as shown here. We close them on each page, even when we know they will re-open on the next page. At the top, the blank line appears after the opening Block Quote because it's part of the Block Quote: the Bibliography began on a previous page and a page break just happened to occur here.
