Sinossi

History of Universities offers a comprehensive exploration of how higher education evolved into the institutions we know today. Tracing the journey from medieval schools, the book highlights the shifting purposes of universities – initially centered on theology, law, and medicine, and later expanding to scientific research and technological innovation. It also examines the evolving social roles of universities, from influencing social mobility to shaping cultural development. 

 
The book adopts a chronological and thematic approach, starting with the emergence of medieval universities. It then analyzes their transformation during the Renaissance and Reformation, and concludes with the rise of the modern university in the 19th and 20th centuries. A unique aspect of this academic history lies in its comparative analysis of universities across different national contexts, revealing diverse pathways of institutional development and the interconnectedness of academia. 

 
The content provides necessary historical context, including an overview of medieval society, the Renaissance, the Reformation, the Enlightenment, and the rise of modern nation-states.
