Description:Excerpt from The Royal Authority and the Early English Universities: A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of Philosophy of the University of Pennsylvania The most prominent increase of university powers under the fostering care of the central government was that of the judicial privileges of the chancellor. With out the royal grants the chancellor could not have gain ed his wide authority over cases which ordinarily be longed to the royal or local justices; without the aid of the king he could not have effectively enforced his judg merits; and without his timely interference even the chancellor's ecclesiastical jurisdiction might have been greatly circumscribed and retarded in its development. Only, indeed, from the central authority of the king dom could this aid come, for the local officials were jealous and very often had good reason for feeling ag grieved 'and revengeful. If the latter could have had their way in this matter the universities would have re mained mere unorganized gatherings of students with out coercive powers over even their own members. That the universities did increase in importance and strength, generally at the expense of some local author ity, is due for the most part to the action of the succes sive English kings living during the thirteenth and four teenth centuries, who, widely divergent in character as they may be, had at least this one point in common, they all favored these two great institutions of learning.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
