"Life in the Medieval University" by Robert S. Rait is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book delves into the establishment, growth, and structure of universities during the medieval period, with a particular focus on the evolving life of students and the societal implications of these institutions. It discusses key notions such as student guilds, university governance, and the relationship between educational bodies and the broader social context of Europe during the Middle Ages. The opening of this work introduces the significance of universities as crucial centers of learning, particularly emphasizing their role in society, as reflected in Chaucer's depictions of students. Rait highlights the historical context of university founding and development, exploring terms related to these institutions such as "Universitas" and "Studium Generale." It sets the stage for a more detailed examination of student life, the organization of universities, the daily experiences of scholars, and the intellectual currents that characterized this vibrant period of educational history, which Rait aims to illuminate further in the following chapters.
