"The Grey Friars in Oxford" by A. G. Little is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The work delves into the establishment and evolution of the Franciscan friars at the University of Oxford, chronicling their contributions, challenges, and impact from their arrival in England in 1224 until their dissolution in 1538. It is designed to provide an insightful narrative into the lives of the Grey Friars, drawing on original documents and a wealth of historical records. The opening of the book sets the stage for the history of the Grey Friars, detailing their arrival in Oxford and the conditions they faced as they established themselves among the existing religious orders. It recounts the early years marked by their impoverished yet cheerful existence and their actions as peacemakers and crusaders. The narrative emphasizes their adherence to the values laid out by St. Francis, including poverty and communal living, juxtaposed with anecdotes about their interactions with the University and local townsfolk, illustrating a vivid picture of their struggles and triumphs in a medieval context.
