Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Rectorial Addresses Delivered at the University of St. Andrews: Sir William Stirling-Maxwell, to the Marquess of Bute 1863-1893; Edited With an Introduction The publication of the Rectorial Addresses delivered at the University of St. Andrews, since the passing of the Universities (Scotland) Act of 1858, has often been thought of. The late Principals Tulloch and Shairp were most anxious that it should be undertaken. As more than one-third of a century has elapsed since the passing of the Act, it seems appropriate that the thirteen Addresses, which have been delivered by our eleven Rectors, should now be brought together, and issued in a memorial volume, for the benefit of the University and its students. All the Rectors who still live have cordially consented to the publication of their addresses, and the representatives of those who are dead have done the same. To those who wish to understand the aims and ideals of our Scottish Universities, during the latter half of the nineteenth century, the perusal of these Addresses will be more than interesting, as they discuss some of the deepest educational problems, and deal with others of wide practical significance. It is an honour to the students of the University that such men have been elected to fill the rectorial chair. It may be expedient, in a brief Introduction, to state a few historical facts in reference to the office of Rector; and to add one or two incidents in connection with the elections which have taken place at St. Andrews, during the last thirty years.
