Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Discourse on the Studies of the University of Cambridge Before this part of his task was completed, an attack of indisposition compelled him for a short time to quit the University; and on his return the languor of ill health, and a series of engage ments of which it is not necessary here to speak, prevented him from immediately resuming it: so that the latter part of this Discourse was not printed till a late period in the Easter Term, when most of the junior Members had left the University for the long vacation. On this account he re solved not to publish before the University reas sembled in the October Term. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Discourse on the Studies of the University The substance of the following discourse was delivered in the Chapel of Trinity College, on the day of the annual Commemoration in December last, and is published at the request of the junior members of the Society, to whom it was more immediately addressed. As the long delay in its publication requires some apology, the Author begs leave to state, that the request, on which he is now acting, first reached him during the Christmas vacation, when he was absent from the University; and that for some weeks after his return he was so much occupied in completing a course of lectures and in passing two memoirs through the press, that the Lent Term had nearly expired before he had time to revise his MS for the printer. Without any further delay it was then struck off as far as page 28; and he hoped to have published it at the commencement of the Easter Term. During its progress through the press he found however that he had undertaken a more difficult task than he had imagined: for having animadverted with much freedom on some parts of the Cambridge course of reading, he felt himself compelled, before he dared to give what he had written to the public, to enter at more length on a justification of his opinions. On this account, his remarks on the classical, metaphysical, and moral studies of the University (extending from p. 28 to p. 77) were cast over again, and expanded to at least three times their original length.

This book was released on 2015-07-05 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the University of Cambridge Although the present volume appears as one of a series especially designed to illustrate Church History, the writer has not sought to modify the treatment of the subject in order to establish its claim to a place in such a category. The following sketch will suffice to show that it was in the University of Cambridge that the Reformation in England had its real commencement; that it was there that Puritanism first assumed a distinct organisation, and at the same time encountered the mo6t effective resistance; that it was there also that a movement which most materially influenced the religions thought of the seventeenth century, - the teaching of the Cambridge Platonists, - took its rise and made its most important contributions to the cause of freedom and toleration.

This book was released on 2018-02-07 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The University of Cambridge, in the Eighteenth Century His virtues, however, have perished with him and he has come down in history with a sorry and tarnished reputation. It is popularly believed that he was lazy and self-indulgent; but there is good reason to think that his failings have been exaggerated. Though Cam bridge in the eighteenth century was sadly lacking in eminent mathematiciansl, it was not wanting in great classical scholars; and a century of university history which can boast of Bentley, Porson, Dawes and Mark land may be accounted to have paid its debt and more than its debt to classical scholarship. It can of course be contended that scholars of such merit were rare, that they were the exception rather than the rule, and that to derive from them the standard of industry prevailing in the university is to argue from the particular to the general; but, inasmuch as it is the inevitable conse quence of the progress of learning that the greater part of the work of one generation is superseded by the next, and that only a comparatively few students are remembered for all time, it is particularly necessary to be cautious of assuming that idleness must have been almost universal because the proofs of industry are not very obvious. It is true that research was not quite so much the order of the day as it is at present; but the claims of learning and scholarship were certainly not completely disregarded. No one now troubles to in vestigate the high dusty shelves of college libraries on which repose the volumes on philosophy, divinity.

Its purpose is to Show the conditions of medieval England Which shaped the University in its beginnings, and the intellectual needs which, in successive centuries, it was the aim of its benefactors and the founders of its colleges to satisfy. In the chapters which deal with post-reforma tion times I have made no continuous survey of the life and studies of the University, but have aimed at showing its character at certain epochs in its history, and its influences on some of its most eminent sons who have carried those influences into national Spheres of science or letters. Incidentally I have endeavoured to present a picture of men and manners at Cambridge at the time when it was known to each of these great men, and of scenes in college courts and.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Manuscript Rarities: Of the University of Cambridge It was at one time my intention to have printed a catalogue of all the manuscripts in the various libraries of the University, but, upon consideration, I concluded that it would not be well for a private individual to undertake the accomplishment of such a work, unless it were published under the immediate superintendence of the University authorities. A Catalogue of the Cambridge Manuscripts by a Member of the University, would be liable to imperfect criticism out of doors, as proceeding from and sanctioned by the University itself.
