Download or read book Christ's written by David Reynolds and published by Pan Macmillan. This book was released on 2005 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Informed but readable, incisive and entertaining, this is a revealing history of a very British institution by some of the leading historians of our era. The list of contributors includes Simon Schama, David Cannadine, Roy Porter and Linda Colley. In 2005 Christ's college Cambridge is celebrating its quincentenary. It was founded by a remarkable woman – the mother of a King. Its alumni include two of the intellectual giants of the West, Milton and Darwin. And it has been immortally caricatured in one of the most famous university novels of the twentieth century, The Masters by C.P. Snow. In recent years it has also nurtured a succession of outstanding historians, many of them pupils or protégés of Sir John Plumb. These chapters have been written by some of those historians – all scholars of distinction, some of them household names. Their distinctive snapshots of Christ’s at different moments in time also reveal something of the rich variety of historical writing today – religious and intellectual history, biography, economics and the history of science.

Book Synopsis A History of the University of Cambridge: Volume 1, The University to 1546 by : Christopher Nugent Lawrence Brooke
Download or read book A History of the University of Cambridge: Volume 1, The University to 1546 written by Christopher Nugent Lawrence Brooke and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1988 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first of a four volume History of the University of Cambridge, under the General Editorship of Professor C.N.L. Brooke, and the first volume on the medieval University as a whole to be published in over a century. It provides a synthesis of the intellectual, social, political, and religious life of the early University, and gives serious attention to the development of classroom studies and how they changed with the coming of the Renaissance and the Reformation. Following the first stirrings of the University in the early thirteenth century, the evolution of the University is traced from the original Corporation of Masters and Scholars through the early development of the colleges. The second half of the book focuses on the century from the 1440s to the 1540s, which saw the flowering of the University under Tudor patronage. In the decades preceding the Reformation many colleges were founded, the teaching structures reorganized, and the curriculum made more humanistic. The place of Cambridge at the forefront of northern European universities was eventually assured when Henry VIII founded Trinity College in 1546, in the face of changes and difficulties experienced during the course of the Reformation.

This book was released on 2017-10-18 with total page 632 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Biographical Register of Christ's College, 1505-1905, and of the Earlier Foundation, God's House, 1448-1505, Vol. 1: 1448-1665 N consequence of my husband's serious illness, I have been asked to write a few words of Preface to his biographical Register of Christ's College. It was in the early '9o's, that he first conceived the idea of writing a history of Christ's College. He began by making a careful examination of the papers in the Muniment Room. From these, and from mss. At the British Museum, and from various other sources he obtained much information, and he intended to write a complete history of the College and of its more distinguished sons. This work was interrupted, when he was asked by Mr Robinson to write a short history of the College for his Series of Histories of the Cambridge Colleges, and consequently, he had to cut down and omit very much that he had already prepared. After this history was completed, he determined to write a biographical Register on the lines laid down by Dr Venn in his Biographical History (f Gonville and Caius College, to gain materials for which he visited the diocesan Registries in England, working also in the Library at Lambeth and at the British Museum. His first illness in 1903 interrupted his work, but during his convalescence at Exmouth' in 1903 - 4, he began to arrange his facts; and worked steadily till his second illness in 1907. Indeed, this work occupied all his leisure during the latter years of his life. The final revision was practically ended when his illness began in 1909. His greatest trouble then was the completion of his work, but this anxiety was entirely removed when Dr Venn, one of his oldest Cambridge friends, suggested to me that his son Mr J. A. Venn, who was already engaged in similar work, would see the book through the Press; while he, in all cases of difficulty, would give it the benefit of his ripe experience. It is difficult to put into words the gratitude, which I, together with all my family - and I am asked by members of the Society to add the College - feel to Dr Venn and his son, for the relief thus afforded to my husband - a gratitude which he fully shares.

Book Synopsis The King's Hall Within the University of Cambridge in the Later Middle Ages by : Alan B. Cobban
Download or read book The King's Hall Within the University of Cambridge in the Later Middle Ages written by Alan B. Cobban and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2007-01-11 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A detailed study of the King's Hall, Cambridge, from its foundation in the early fourteenth century until its dissolution in 1546. It is based largely on the 26 extant volumes of the King's Hall accounts which form one of the most remarkable sequences of medieval collegiate records in Europe. The rich profusion of the material has made it possible to reconstruct the economic, constitutional and business organisation of a medieval academic society, thereby providing for the college that same kind of exhaustive treatment which has been lavished upon other categories of medieval institutions. Dr Cobban discusses the vital contribution made by the King's Hall to the evolution of the University of Cambridge and shows how the interpretation of medieval Cambridge history has to be considerably modified. He demonstrates the important formative influence of the King's Hall in shaping the course of English collegiate development and the ways in which this College was finely attuned to the new educational trends of the age.
