'Peter Searby ... admirably meets the challenge of describing the transition from 'unreformed Cambridge' to something beginning to display recognizable marks of the University as it exists today. This is full of rich and fascinating detail ... wide-ranging study ...'. The Times Literary Supplement
'... a surefooted account of the university's response to the upheavals generated by the revolutionary climate of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries and by the movement for reform which followed it ... it illuminates not only the history of a particular university but also that of the period more generally.' Economic History Review
This volume describes the structure, constitution and curricula of the University of Cambridge and the part it played in the political life of Britain. The careers and intellectual achievements of some leading scholars are decstribed in detal, while undergraduate life - social, sporting and academic - is examined through individual case-studies.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Cambridge in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries was a place of sharp contrasts. At one extreme a gifted minority studied mathematics intensively for the Tripos, the honours degree. At the other, most undergraduates faced meagre academic demands and might idle their time away. The dons, the fellows of the colleges that constituted the University, were chosen for their Tripos performance and included scholars of international reputation such as Whewell and Sidgwick, but also men who treated their fellowships as sinecures. A pillar of the Church of England that denied membership to non-Anglicans, the University functioned largely as a seminary, while teaching more mathematics than theology. This volume describes the complex institution of the University, and also the beginnings of its transformation after 1850 - under the pressure of public opinion and the State - into the University as it exists today: inclusive in its membership, diverse in its curricula, and staffed by committed scholars and teachers. This volume describes the structure, constitution and curricula of the University of Cambridge and the part it played in the political life of Britain. For most of this period the University functioned largely as a seminary for the Church of England, and much attention is paid to the religious views of its members. The careers and intellectual achievements of some leading scholars are described in detail, while undergraduate life—social, sporting and academic—is examined through individual case studies. Special attention is paid to the movement to reform and modernize the University in the period 1830-70.
