172925553Oxoniae: E Theatro Sheldoniano 1729. 8vo in 4s 15.9 cm 6.25". 24 232 lacking pp. 22730 pp. <br><br>18th-century edition of this collection of selected statutes of the University of Oxford originally compiled by Thomas Crossfield of Queen's College and printed in 1638 under the title Statuta selecta è corpore statutorum Universitatis Oxon. The section Statuta Bibliothecae Bodleianae is of special interest to book people though the notes on disturbing the peace and de nocturna Vagatione cannot but please the Latinate.<br>Â Â Â Â That this is a volume of "selections" is trumpeted on the title-page. However both usefully for the seeker of context and at points confusingly for the actual reader its table of contents seems to be not for what's present as selected but for the text in full extent so the table announces for example that "Titulus XVII" comprises nine sections and lists these even unto the subsections though the body of the book itself sets forth sections five and six only.<br>Â Â Â Â The title-page offers a handsome vignette of the Theatre not one of the commonest ones. <br>Â Â Â Â <br>Â Â Â Â ESTC T118673; Madan Oxford Books 17.

Secret History of the University of Oxford. Amhurst was expelled from Oxford in 1719 supposedly for his "libertinism and misconduct" but he attributed it to the university's dislike of his "persistent Whig principles and of his openly expressed hatred of toryism and of the extreme high-church party" DNB. In revenge or response he began this work as a periodical paper which appeared twice-weekly from January 11 to 6 July 1721. It is a satire on the university and university life and quite humorous in its depiction of early 18th century university life. Printed for R. Francklin unknown books
