About This Book

The lectures trace how a medieval revival of learning produced institutionalized higher education, concentrating on early centers such as Bologna and Paris and the shift from informal instruction to organized faculties, curricula, and academic degrees. They detail classroom practice, textbooks, methods of teaching and examination, and the legal and social status and freedoms of professors. Attention to student life is based on manuals, letters, and poetry, revealing student customs and influences on university culture. The study closes by identifying the medieval inheritance that shaped the structure and traditions of modern universities and offers a bibliographical note for further reading.
