Book Description
Excerpt from The Origin and Early Development of the English Universities to the Close of the Thirteenth Century: A Study in Institutional History Another in uence is to be found in the curriculum of the preceding age. There was no sudden movement or discovery; the revival of the eleventh and twelfth centuries grew out of the old conditions, and it may not be too much to say that its direction was completely determined by those conditions, as, for instance, the revival of logic at Paris, of law at Bologna, and of medicine at Salerno. It is necessary, then, to notice more closely the tra ditional education inherited from the past. As has already been indicated, the object of this education was ecclesiastical, that is, to expound the scriptures and the writings of the church fathers. For the proper understanding of these a certain amount of secular education was considered necessary, represented by the elementary trivium, grammar, rhetoric, and logic, and by the more advanced quadrivium, music, arithmetic, geometry and astronomy. The content of the quadrivium was very meager before the twelfth century renaissance, and so the secular education of the dark ages was in reality the trivium. Before the time of Charles the Great the secular culture that had survived was based upon the Latin classics and sometimes upon the Roman law, but at this time the heart and center of sec ular education in Northern Europe had become dialectics or logic. This was the one study of the past that the student was encour aged to make his own, not only because it could not be regarded as pagan in its in uence but also because it was thought essen tial for the right comprehension and teaching of Christian truth.

A History of the University in Europe: Volume 1, Universities in the Middle Ages
Author: Hilde de Ridder-SymoensPublisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1316583422
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 536
Book Description
This, the first in the series, is also the first volume on the medieval University as a whole to be published in over a century. It provides a synthesis of the intellectual, social, political and religious life of the early University, and gives serious attention to the development of classroom studies and how they changed with the coming of the Renaissance and the Reformation. Following the first stirrings of the University in the thirteenth century, the evolution of the University is traced from the original Corporation of masters and Scholars through the early development of the colleges. The second half of the book focuses on the century from the 1440s to 1540s, which saw the flowering of the University under Tudor patronage. In the decades preceding the Reformation many colleges were founded, the teaching structures reorganised and the curriculum made more humanistic. The place of Cambridge at the forefront of northern European universities was eventually assured when Henry VIII founded Trinity College in 1546, in the face of changes and difficulties experienced during the course of the Reformation.

Constituciones Universitatis Cantebrigiensis
Author: M. B. HackettPublisher: CUP Archive
ISBN: 9780521070768

Languages : en
Pages : 434
Book Description
Dr Hackett discovered in the Angelica Library in Rome a manuscript containing a unique text of the first constitution of Cambridge University. The centrepiece of this book is a critical edition of the text with an English translation on facing pages. The importance of his discovery for historians of Cambridge and of medieval university education cannot be overestimated. The Cambridge constitutions form a complete code, promulgated at a remarkably early date (c. 1250). Dr Hackett shows that Oxford lagged more than 50 years behind Cambridge in codifying its statutes and neither Paris nor Bologna, the oldest of all universities, had a written constitution or code of laws at this time.
