Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is an anthology of scholarly writing that examines the social and academic challenges faced by Oxford University during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The essays critique Oxford's failure to keep up with the times, particularly in terms of its entrenched conservatism and resistance to include modern subjects into the curriculum. The author argues that a lack of leadership and an unwillingness to reconsider educational priorities have led Oxford to fall behind other institutions and fail to attract working-class students. The author also argues that Oxford's social and intellectual shortcomings have impacts beyond the university, negatively affecting British society as a whole. Nevertheless, this book is not simply a condemnation of Oxford, but also a celebration of the university's unique culture and traditions. The author is ultimately hopeful that Oxford can overcome its challenges and continue to be a beacon of learning and progress.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. 69 pages, paper still uncut edges, half title, charcoal endpapers, on recto of half title the name in ink of "Prof Henry Hebb Sills". Two tone binding , quarter white vellum and blue cloth boards, some light wear to boards, 8vo.Notes Included with this is a typed copy of his humorous rhyme "The Motor Bus" (a macaronic poem written in 1914 satirising the advent of the motor bus in Oxford. The Irish author was a classicist and humorous poet an his first book. ALSO please note: I purchased this copy directly from Professor Sills himself in Norwich in about 1987. The AI info online on the man states his dates as 1873-1941. This is NOT the date of his death. I can assure AI and anyone else that he was still (although poorly and had an oxygen canister to aid his breathing) alive. This date may be when he ceased being part of Kings College but even this is wrong methinks as he was there after the war? But 1941 it was not a death date. I remember clearly him saying to me "Don't get old son". 40 years later I sort of get it.…
