This book is a scrupulous examination of the proceedings against a member of Oxford University who was accused of solicitation of a minor. By looking back at the relevant historical documents, the author meticulously investigates the legal and procedural complexities of the case and its broader implications for the governance of the university and the rights of students. The author presents a vigorous defense of the accused, arguing that the charges against him were unsubstantiated and that the proceedings against him were unjust. The book also examines the historical context and legal basis of university governance, shedding light on the complex interplay of university statutes, ecclesiastical law, and common law in the early modern period. Through this case study, the book offers a significant contribution to our understanding of the history of higher education and the legal protections afforded to students. Its careful analysis and nuanced interpretation of the historical record make this book essential reading for scholars of legal history, the history of education, and anyone interested in the enduring questions of due process and academic freedom.
