England 2019 Episode 30: Oxford's Other Colleges
The Divinity School is one of the oldest parts of the university. Dating to 1426, it has arguably the finest interior in Oxford, as was appropriate given that theology was considered the most important of all subjects at the time. Its crowning glory is the vaulted ceiling from 1478. It was here that Latimer, Ridley and Cranmer were cross-examined by the Papal Commissioner in 1554 before being condemned as heretics.
Around 1440, a substantial collection of manuscripts was donated to the university so a second story was built atop the Divinity School. The library, with its magnificent beamed ceiling, was first opened in 1488. Sadly, it fell into disrepair within a century, owing in part to the depredations of the dissolution, but also because of the emergence of the printing press which rendered manuscripts redundant. Thomas Bodley, a student at Magdalen College, became aware of this appalling state of affairs and used his network of contacts to restore the library and reinstate a collection of two thousand books in 1602. The library now bears his name: the Bodleian. Visitors can see a number of the original leather-bound 17th c. books, some turned spine inwards so that chaining them to the shelves (a common practice) would cause less damage. Photography is not permitted in the library so the images you see are stock photos, but they're an accurate representation of what we saw during our visit.
The makers of the Harry Potter films made extensive use of Oxford for numerous scenes, with the Divinity School and the Bodleian becoming the Sanatorium and the Library at Hogwarts.
Soon Oxford's book collection outgrew the space, so the Old Schools Quadrangle was built in 1613, with the Divinity School forming its west side. This magnificent piece of Jacobean-Gothic architecture became the new home of the various schools of the university with the additional library space above. The Latin names of each school can be seen above the doors: logic, moral philosophy, music, etc. At the east end of the quad is the splendid Tower of the Five Orders, so named because it helps instruct students in the five styles of classical architecture: Doric, Tuscan, Ionic, Corinthian and Composite. In a niche on the fourth story is a statue of James I, the reigning monarch when the quad was built.
To the south of the Old Schools Quadrangle is the impressive circular Radcliffe Camera. Completed in 1749 and absorbed as part of the Bodleian Library in 1860, it is one of the most familiar symbols of Oxford.
Just to the east of Radcliffe Camera, All Souls College was founded in 1438. The school's North Quadrangle is dominated by distinctive twin towers, while on the opposite side of the quad, we can see Radcliffe Camera looming in the background. The sundial, designed by Christopher Wren in 1658, graces the front of the college's library. The school’s 15th c. chapel, with its original hammerbeam roof, has a magnificent reredos behind the main altar.
Bordering Radcliffe Camera to the west is Brasenose College, founded in 1509. But it is the facade facing High Street that we found the most interesting, with an entertaining array of carved figures.
Lincoln College, dating to 1427, is where John and Charles Wesley founded the Holy Club from which Methodism sprang.
The alumni of Pembroke College include George Whitfield, the famous 18th c. Methodist evangelist in America. None less than J. R. R. Tolkien was Professor of Anglo-Saxon here.
Founded in 1264, Merton College is one of the oldest in Oxford. Wycliffe is a graduate, and Tolkien moved to Merton as its Professor of English Language and Literature after his time at Pembroke.
The Fellows of Oriel College include Sir Walter Raleigh and Joseph Butler, the author of the Analogy of Religion, one of my favorite works of classic Christian philosophy, a 1788 edition of which is in my library.
The most impressive part of Queen's College is its magnificent cupola-topped Baroque entrance.
The Church of St Peter in the East with its 11th c. tower is one of the oldest in Oxford. Dating from Saxon times, it now serves as the library of St Edmund Hall. Founded in the 1190s, this tiny school is the only surviving example of the medieval halls that pre-dated the foundation of the actual colleges, making it Oxford’s oldest surviving educational establishment.
The series of still photos at the end of the video begins with pictures of three books that we saw at the Weston Library, a large modern annex of the Bodleian which includes a gallery of historically important volumes. The first book pictured, from 1509, is the only book ever illustrated by Leonardo da Vinci. The author was well aware of the challenges of rendering complex three dimensional shapes, so he turned to his friend Leonardo for help, including this icosidodecahedron, a shape with 20 triangular faces and 12 pentagonal faces. The second book pictured is a late-13th c. medical text. The final book is an early anatomy text.
