Life in the Medieval University (Classic Reprint) Synopsis

Excerpt from Life in the Medieval University

The history Of pious and charitable foundations is a vindication of the truth Of the portraiture Of the Prologue. The foundation Of a new monastery and the endowment Of the friars had alike ceased to attract the benevolent donor, who was turning his attention to the universities, where secular clergy were numerous. The clerks Of Oxford and Cambridge had succeeded to the place held by the monks, and, after them, by the friars, in the affection and the respect of the nation.
