Robinson's series of College Histories; to Reminiscences of Oxford and its companion volumes from the Clarendon Press; and, above all the rest, to Anthony a Wood, and to the Rev.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Hand-Book for Visitors to Oxford Handbook telling him in a few words the history of those buildings which will meet his eye in his walks about Oxford, and their chief points of interest. It does not profess to be a History either of the University or of the City. As the name implies, it is intended more especially for the visitor to Oxford. At the same time, a certain amount of history has to be told in order to explain the buildings, but this is kept as far as possible subordinate to. the description of the structures to which it. is the-purpose of the Handbook to draw the visitors attention. It has been thought advisable in this edition to extend the Introduction, giving an account of the present status and constitution of the University, and pointing out the increased facilities which are now afforded in all branches of study.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Thames Illustrated: A Picturesque Journeying From Richmond to Oxford And now the river, which has lost something on its charm after leaving Twickenham, gains few character, and umbrageous stretches of neighbouring country appear as we approach the wooded beauties of Bushey. The ancient town of Kingston lies in the heart of a most charming country, on the Surrey side, a mile and-a-half above Teddington. The place has long been of high importance, and has one of the oldest bridges on the Thames. It is a pleasant town, with broad market-place, in the midst of which stands the Town Hall, a good Italian structure, erected in 1840. Near by, upon an inscribed basement with carved surrounding pillars and ornamental railing, is the celebrated coronation stone, from which, as many have averred, the place took its name, and whereof the chroniclers record that it was the regal seat at the coronation of Athelstan, 924; Edmund, 940; Edred, 946; Edgar, 959; Edward the Martyr, 975.

Download or read book Corydon written by Reginald Fanshawe and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-28 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Corydon: An Elegy in Memory of Matthew Arnold and Oxford The general form and subject of this poem are defined sumciently on \the title page as an Elegy in memory of Matthew Arnold and Oxford. The title itself, Corydon, was naturally suggested 'by Arnold's own Thyrsis, an Elegy peculiarly dear to those that love both Oxford and poetry. To all such I would fain h0pe Corydon may make some appeal, for its subject's sake, if not for any merit of its own. The fuller meaning of the poem I have sought to indicate by the prosaic device of a detailed table of contents, so that I may dispense with a longer preface and all notes of explanation.
