Rövid leírás:
'This is an admirably scholarly work, and a good read too. Its illustrations and plans are well chosen . . . John Jones gives us a great deal of new and detailed information about many aspects of the College's life, and some balanced revisions of traditional judgements. It will remain the standard work for a long time.'
Christopher Hill
Hosszú leírás:
Balliol College has existed as a community of scholars on its present site without interruption since about 1263. By this token it is the oldest College in Oxford or Cambridge. Balliol men were prominent in the collection of humanist literature in the fifteenth century, and the College was notorious in the century after that for adherence to Rome. Even the relative obscurity of the next two hundred years was occasionally illuminated by famous members such as John Evelyn the diarist (1620-1706) and James Stirling the mathematician (1692-1770). Balliol blazed the trail in the early nineteenth century by introducing a competitive entrance examination, becoming a dominant influence throughout the British Empire in Victorian and Edwardian times. The College's sometime members include many poets and men of letters, heads of government, heads of state, and religious leaders. The first edition (1988) which used much fresh material and was revisionist in its conclusions, ended with the outbreak of war in 1939. The second edition included new detail throughout, a greatly increased number of illustrations, and it brought coverage up to 1996 in an extended Epilogue. The revised second edition has been brought up to 2004 in the extended Epilogue.
These changes ... bring this excellent history up to date and guarantee that its value to historians remains as great as hitherto.
