Moore surveys the history of universities, from their origin in the Middle Ages to the present. Universities have survived the disruptive power of the Protestant Reformation, the Scientific, French, and Industrial Revolutions, and the turmoil of two world wars-and they have been exported to every continent through Western imperialism. Moore deftly tells this story in a series of chronological chapters, covering major developments such as the rise of literary humanism and the printing press, the "Berlin model" of universities as research institutions, the growing importance of science and technology, and the global wave of campus activism that rocked the twentieth century. Focusing on significant individuals and global contexts, he highlights how the university has absorbed influences without losing its central traditions. Today, Moore argues, as universities seek corporate solutions to twenty-first-century problems, we must renew our commitment to a higher education that produces not only technicians, but citizens. 606 $aEurope$xHistory 606 $aCivilization$xHistory 606 $aEducation$xHistory 606 $aIntellectual life$xHistory 606 $aEuropean History 606 $aCultural History 606 $aHistory of Education 606 $aIntellectual History 615 0$aEurope$xHistory. 615 0$aCivilization$xHistory. 615 0$aEducation$xHistory. 615 0$aIntellectual life$xHistory. 615 14$aEuropean History. 615 24$aCultural History. 615 24$aHistory of Education. 615 24$aIntellectual History. 676 $a378.009 676 $a378.009 700 $aMoore$b John C$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0197967 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483384103321 996 $aA Brief History of Universities$92853642 997 $aUNINA
