Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Address: Delivered on the Opening of the New Engineering Buildings of the University of Edinburgh 16th October, 1906 My first words as an Honorary Graduate of the University of Edinburgh must be of thanks for the great honor conferred and of congratulation upon the new acquisitions which she has secured, intended to increase the facilities and hence extend the power of the youngest adopted child of universities, Applied Science. Like most good things, the University is a growth, and slowly indeed has it developed. Planted in Italy in the ninth century, by the tenth, Salerno had become famous for two subjects, Medicine and Philosophy. Other Universities followed, but no sign of Ecclesiasticism appears until early in the twelfth century, when the Catholic Church demanded for her canon law equal recognition with the civil law, and the University of Bologna became the centre of the union between these two branches. Henceforth a fierce struggle ensued between the Realists and the Nominalists which continued for centuries. Metaphysical theories arose giving rise to endless controversies turning upon questions the scientific investigation of which was impossible. Paris was dominated by the Realists, while at Heidleberg the Nominalists expelled them, and it was much the same at Vienna and Erfurt.
