Reissue of classic college history covering period of great changes
in society and in university affairs. This history, originally
published on the occasion of the Sexcentenary of the College in
1952, carries on the story first told by Masters (1753) and Lamb
(1831), and brings it down to the mid-twentieth century, Mastership
by Mastership. It deals with a period of great changes during which
a Whig Society turned Tory, flourished as a stronghold of
Evangelicalism, and was for a time the third largest College in the
University. The book goes on to describe thedecline which set in at
the end of the nineteenth century, the break with the Low Church
tradition, and the Renaissance which began under new leadership
shortly before the First World War and continued after it. It says
somethingof the effect upon the College of the great University
reforms of the period, and it attempts to give some picture of
social conditions, and the way of life of the ordinary
undergraduate. The volume also includes lives of all theFellows
active in the College between 1822 and 1952, notes on College
livings, an account of the holders of College offices, and an
alphabetical list of all members of the College admitted between
1822 and 1950.
