Excerpt from On the Nationalisation of the Old English Universities
In preparing the first volume of the Life of Benjamin Jowett, I had access to documents which threw unexpected light on certain movements, especially in connexion with Oxford University Reform. I was thus enabled to meet the desire of friends, by writing an article on "Some Liberal Movements of the Last Half-century," which appeared in the Fortnightly Review for March, 1900. And I was encouraged by the reception which that article met with, to expand the substance of it into a small book. Hence the present work.
I have extended my reading on the subject, and have had recourse to all sources of information which I found available. My special thanks are due to Messrs. Chapman and Hall, for their permission to use the article in question; to Mr. C. S. Roundell, without whose help and counsel I could have done but little; to Viscount Goschen, for access to valuable correspondence; and to Mr. Hagbert Wright and his subordinates at the London Library, for special assistance in research.
