Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Mirror of Oxford Within the past few years so much has written, and excellently written, about Oxford and its colleges, by minor historians, that another new book on the same subject may well expect to be challenged to give the raison detre of its existence. Much indeed has been written, but it has all been written to harmonise with the Protestant tradition. In the otherwise admirable guides to Oxford already existing, this is conspicuously the case. Wherever questions arise regarding the religious storm which burst over the University in the sixteenth century, statements are made, and inferences drawn, which in the light of present knowledge can no longer be sustained. Much, too, is said which to the adherents of the old religion is needlessly offensive: and on the other hand much that is deeply interesting to them is left untold. Now that religious disabilities are removed, and all the privileges of Oxford life are once again open to Catholic students, the time seems opportune for providing Catholic visitors with a story of the University written by a sympathetic hand.
