Introduction

Originally published in 1938, the author traces the rise of the great European Universities from the Cathedral Schools of the tenth and eleventh centuries and their gradual development into republics of learning with power to treat on terms of equality with king and pope. The conflict between Realism and Nominalism and the emergence of Scholasticism is also discussed and separate chapters are devoted to the greater universities of Europe.
