Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, was founded in 1352 by the
religious Guilds of Corpus Christi and the Blessed Virgin Mary,
making it the only college in Oxford or Cambridge to be established
by the town's citizens. Robert Masters (1713 1798), a fellow of
Corpus and member of the Society of Antiquaries, published this
history in 1753. Divided into two parts, the work gives a full
account of the college's establishment. The first section explains
the role of the guilds and lists the college's early benefactors
and college masters from the foundation to Masters' own day. The
second section, organised alphabetically, focuses on the most
distinguished members of the college, with brief descriptions of
them. This comprehensive and illustrated account of the college's
foundation and development to the eighteenth century will appeal to
anyone interested in the history of Cambridge University and its
colleges.
