Excerpt from Oxford After the War A Liberal Education
There are two propositions which I wish to make prominent at the outset, for they have ruled the thought which I have given to the subject of this pamphlet: -
I. A long history of constitutional development lay behind Oxford when the War came and made the great difference: reformers, with proposals designed to meet the great difference, must, first of all, realise clearly what was the essential characteristic of the life of Oxford throughout the stages of her development in the past, and, realising that characteristic, must see that their reforms are still, in widely altered circumstances, true expressions of it: they must not allow the great difference to break the natural continuity of the traditional life of Oxford; rather, they must use the great difference as an opportunity of maintaining that life in fresh vigour and with enhanced value.
