Synopsis
Since its humble beginnings as a ford for oxen across the river Thames in the tenth century, Oxford has been an inspiration to generations of writers and thinkers, who have admired its ‘dreaming spires’ (Matthew Arnold), or warned of its excesses, as did Anthony Trollope: ‘Oxford is the most dangerous place to which a young man can be sent’.
This compact gift book is packed full of witty, scandalous and entertaining quotations about this famous city from the Middle Ages to the current decade.

Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. This compact gift book is packed full of witty, scandalous and entertaining quotations about this famous city from the Middle Ages to the current decade.Oxford is one of the world's great cities - a source of inspiration to generations of poets, novelists, journalists, and commentators who have visited or called it home. Be it praise or colourful invective, everyone, it seems, has something to say about the city and this slender volume - filled with wise, witty, and sometimes scandalous quotes - presents the full range of impressions it has made.Oxford, 'City of Dreaming Spires,' earns high marks from Hillaire Belloc, who writes that 'there are few greater temptations on earth than to stay permanently at Oxford . . . and to read all the books in the Bodleian.' But it is also, according to Anthony Trollope, 'the most dangerous place to which a young man can be sent.' And none other than Max Beerbohm blames it for making him insufferable.For fans, foes, and those planning a trip to the city in the hopes of forming an opinion, this collection will be welcomed. This compact gift book is packed full of witty, scandalous and entertaining quotations about this famous city from the Middle Ages to the current decade. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781851244003
