History of Universities is an annual publication devoted to the study of every aspect of university history from the Middle Ages to 1945. Each volume consists of a number of articles and book reviews written by scholars from many different countries.Volume VI chiefly comprises articles on the intellectual, social, and professional role of the late-medieval universities, especially Oxford and Paris. The volume is prefaced by an obituary notice dedicated to Charles Schmitt of the Warburg Institute, the internationally renowned Renaissance scholar and founding-editor of the journal, who died in April 1986. The new editor is Laurence Brockliss of Magdalen College, Oxford, a specialist in French higher education in the early-modern period. He is assisted by an editorial board drawn from the leading authorities on the history of the university in Great Britain, Europe, and the United States.

From the divine right of kings to the political philosophies of writers such as Machiavelli, the medieval city-states to the unification of Spain, Daniel Waley and Peter Denley focus on the growing power of the state to illuminate changing political ideas in Europe between the thirteenth and sixteenth centuries. Spanning the entire continent and beyond, and using contemporary voices wherever possible, the authors include substantial sections on economics, religion, and art, and how developments in these areas fed into and were influenced by the transformation of political thinking. The new edition takes the narrative beyond the confines of western Europe with chapters on East Central Europe and the teutonic knights, and the Portuguese expansion across the Atlantic. The third edition of this classic introduction to the period includes even greater use of contemporary voices, full reading lists, and new chapters on East Central Europe and Portuguese exploration. Suitable as an introductory text for undergraduate courses in Medieval Studies and Medieval European History.
