| | Class number: | 378.4 | | Abstract: | This is the first of four volumes comprising A history of the university in Europe, written by an international team of authors under the general editorship of Professor Walter Rüegg. The series has been sponsored by the Standing Conference of Rectors, Presidents and Vice-Chancellors of the European Universities (CRE) and is intended for the general reader as well as the specialist. The series aims to cover the development of the university in Europe (east and west) from its origins to the present, focusing not on the history individual institutions or on universities in each particular country, but on a number of major themes viewed from a European perspective. The originality of the work lies in its comparative, interdisciplinary, collaborative and transitional character. It is not a history of ideas-even though each volume has a section on learning which deals with the content of what was taught at universities at the time-but rather an appreciation of the role and structures of the universities seen against a backcloth of changing conditions, ideas and values. Volume 1, Universities in the Middle Ages, attempts to situate the medieval European universities in their social and political context. After explaining the number and types of universities existing from the beginnings in the twelfth century until about 1500, it examines the inner workings of the institution of the university and paints a general picture of medieval student life. | | Contents note: | Part I: Themes and patterns; Chapter 1: Themes; Chapter II: Patterns; Part II: Structures; Chapter3: Relations with authority; Chapter 4; Management and resources; Chapter 5: Teachers; Part III: Students; Chapter 6: Admission; Chapter 7: Student education, student life; Chapter 8: Careers of graduates; Chapter 9: Mobility; Part IV: Learning; Chapter 10 the faculty of arts; Chapter 11: The faculty of medicine; Chapter 12: The faculties of Law; Chapter 13: The faculty of theology; Epilogue; | | Record link: | https://library.seeu.edu.mk/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=17104 |
