"Readings in the History of Education Mediaeval Universities"

Compayre (see below) includes a brief
list. References to sources and secondary works on the Seven Liberal
Arts are published by Abelson; references relating to university
text-books of Greek origin by Loomis (see below).

=4. Text-books.=
COMPAYRE, G. _Abelard and the Origin and Early History of
Universities._ New York: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1892.
Still the best single text-book for class use. Contains
numerous errors, which should be corrected by comparison
with Rashdall.
WOODWARD, W.H., _editor_. _Mediaeval Schools and Universities._
Cambridge Contributions to Modern History, I. New
York: G.P. Putnam's Sons. This work, which is still
in preparation, will probably supersede Compayre.

5. References to Special Topics.
All of the topics treated in this collection of readings are discussed
by Rashdall and Compayre. Page references may be found by use of the
indexes appended to their books.
=Introduction=. On the historical point of view see J.H. ROBINSON,
_Readings in European History_, Vol. I, Chap. I;
on the place and use of documents, and other questions
relating to the study of history, LANGLOIS and SEIGNOBOS,
_Introduction to the Study of History_.
=Abelard=. MCCABE, JOSEPH. _Abelard_. A scholarly study, in
brilliant style. Chaps. I-IV deal with Abelard as a
teacher. The best biography in English.
=John of Salisbury=.
