William Clark argues that the research university-which originated in German Protestant lands and spread globally in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries-developed in response to market forces and bureaucracy, producing a new kind of academic whose goal was to establish originality and achieve fame through publication. With an astonishing wealth of research, Academic Charisma and the Origins of the Research University investigates the origins and evolving fixtures of academic life: the lecture catalogue, the library catalog, the grading system, the conduct of oral and written exams, the roles of conversation and the writing of research papers in seminars, the writing and oral defense of the doctoral dissertation, the ethos of "lecturing with applause" and "publish or perish," and the role of reviews and rumor. This is a grand, ambitious book that should be required reading for every academic.Education, HigherHistory18th centuryEducation, HigherHistory19th centuryUniversities and collegesHistory18th centuryUniversities and collegesHistory19th centuryElectronic books.Education, HigherHistoryEducation, HigherHistoryUniversities and collegesHistoryUniversities and collegesHistory378.409033378.43378/.4/09033Clark William1953-972808MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910454150303321Academic charisma and the origins of the research university2212898UNINA
