'Medieval Bodleian'


This is my first posting –

I have spent the last 3 weeks anguishing and languishing over my angle - how do I make a well documented historical subject interesting?

I will follow my instincts and my interests in this time and place in history. This will hopefully give some context to my chosen research subject 'The development of the Bodleian Library

First things first –

As the chosen title of my blog suggests the period in history to which the Bodleian Library owes it's beginnings is the 'Medieval period'.

The place to which the Bodleian Library owes it's beginnings is University of Oxford, England.
What of the Bodleian Library, University of Oxford, England in the ‘Medieval period?

Keywords: Medieval England, University of Oxford - History, Scholars - Medieval, Bodleian Library - History, Thomas Bodley
