The Rise of Colleges

George Makdisi

This study was undertaken in order to achieve a better understanding of a pivotal period in Islamic intellectual history. Intellectual movements become more intelligible when studied in close reference to the forces which produced them. The form and content of intellectual works are intelligible in the extent to which the methods of instruction, study and composition are understood in their essential details.
