Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the long-running historical conflict between Oxford's students and citizens. The author chronicles the medieval brawls between the university's diverse student population, known as the Nations. These violent clashes, often instigated by petty disputes, mirrored the civil and baronial wars of the period, exacerbated by clashes between England, Wales and Scotland. Through royal charters and statutes, the university gradually established its jurisdiction over its rowdy student body. However, the Town and Gown conflict continued for centuries, influenced by broader social and political developments. The battles between students and the city, both literal and legal, had a profound impact on the formation of Oxford as a prestigious and independent academic institution. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
