Publisher's Synopsis

ONE who, after twenty years, is restored to the University where he was taught and first triedto teach, and who has received at the hands of his Alma Mater an honour of which he neverdreamed, is tempted to speak both of himself and of her. But I remember that you have come to listen to my thoughts about a great subject, and not to my feelings about myself; and of Oxford who that holds this Professorshipcould dare to speak, when he recalls the exquisite verse in which one of his predecessorsdescribed her beauty, and the prose in which he gently touched on her illusions and protestedthat they were as nothing when set against her age-long warfare with the Philistine...Andrew Cecil Bradley, FBA was an English literary scholar, best remembered for his work on Shakespeare.
