Böcker av Nigel Aston

Enlightened Oxford takes a fresh look at the eighteenth-century University of Oxford and its relation to the state, society, and religion of the time, and how a long-established institution managed to navigate the multiple political challenges of the era while maintaining a cultural presence and a surprising capacity for adaptability.

In this masterly study, based on the latest evidence, Nigel Aston sheds new light on a dynamic period in European history and its impact on the next 200 years of religious life in France.
