Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Meaning of an University: An Inaugural Address Delivered to the Students of University College Aberystwyth on the 20th of October, 1911
To sanction t e proud workings Of the soul, And mountain liberty.
All these things you have here today; they are still, as they were in Wordsworth's time, the best introduction to human society.
When I speak Of a University as the best modern type Of a democracy, I do not mean by democracy that strict mechanical equality and similarity of units which some social thinkers seem to desire. A dead level Of equality between man and man is not conceivable in live society.
