Excerpt from Brasenose College Quatercentenary Monographs, Vol. 1

In view of the Fourth Centenary of the foundation of the College in 1509, a Committee was appointed at a College Meeting early in 1908 to consider what steps should be taken to commemorate the event. Among other schemes which came before the Committee was one by which several writers would undertake short monographs, which, though to a large extent independent of each other in subject and authorship, might when taken together form a survey and picture of the past history of the College.

This plan was adopted, and it was found that the subjects naturally grouped themselves into such as were general in character (Vol. I), and such as dealt with special periods of time (Vol. II). Thanks to the loyal support of those who were asked to be contributors, the projected subjects were all soon taken up, and the first volume is now issued with its full complement of chapters and with more than its proportionate share of illustrations.

The brunt of the work has fallen on the Bursar, and to a less extent 011 the clerks of the Bursary, Dr. Butler having generously undertaken 110 fewer than four monographs. The numerous Benefactions, the Plate and Pictures, and the Estates and Advowsons of the College have entailed a much larger amount of research and labour than are suggested by the concise and orderly presentment of their long array. A Calendar of the older Brasenose Muniments recently completed by Mr. Herbert Hurst has aided the task.
