Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Oxford and Oxford Life It is now more than two years since I agreed with Messrs Methnen & Co. to re-edit "Oxford, its Life and Schools," which was edited by Mr Stedman in 1887. But the important and widely-supported movement for a radical change in the degree system of Oxford, which was set on foot by the President of Corpus, seemed at one time likely to be successful: it was useless to think of publishing anything on Oxford while this uncertainty as to future changes prevailed, and hence the delay in the appearance of the book. I have spoken of it as a new edition of an old work; it would be more true to call it a new book. Chapters II., III., V., VII., and IX. are entirely new, while chapters IV., VI., and VIII. have been most carefully revised, and considerable additions have been made to them. Unfortunatly my friend, Mr Henson, was too busy to spare any time to complete chapter I., and left it entirely in my hands. I have therefore republished it as before (with the correction of two or three obvious misprints), adding, however, some pages to it (pp. 25 to 30) dealing with the history of the present century.
