Bøger i A History of the University in Europe serien

This is the second volume of a four-part history of the university in Europe, written by an international team of authors under the general editorship of Professor Walter Ruegg, which situates the universities in their social and political context throughout the three centuries spanning the period 1500 to 1800.

This 2004 book tells the success story of the modern research university in Europe and its expansion to other continents. By focusing on the freedom of scientific research, teaching and study, the medieval university structure was modernised and enabled discoveries to become a professional, bureaucratically-regulated activity of the university.

This is the final volume in a four-part series covering the development of the university in Europe. Dealing with the epoch-making reconstruction and expansion of higher education after 1945, it traces the development of relationships between universities and national states, teachers and students, their ambitions and political activities.

This is 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.
