Beschreibung

This book is a satirical and irreverent take on the history of the University of Oxford, written in the early 18th century. The author, who was a student at Oxford, takes a humorous and critical look at the traditions, practices, and personalities of the university, from the vice-chancellor to the students. He also pokes fun at the wider social and cultural context in which the university is situated, and offers a lively and entertaining critique of the educational and intellectual values of his time.
