Synopsis
Excerpt from Remarks on the Present State of Classical Scholarship and Distinctions in the University of Oxford
As regards the first, it is notorious that no instruo tion whatever emanates from the Greek chair which is available to the younger members of the Univer sity.

But this is not the point. The fact is admitted, that no lectures are given, and no benefit immediately derived to our younger students by the circumstance of our pos sessing, in the person of our Professor, the most accomplished scholar and critic in the country.
