3.0 out of 5 stars Thomas Hughes: On Higher Education, November 24, 2001
By A Customer
This book, and its prequel Tom Brown's Schooldays, is under-read in classes on the Victorian novel. Tom Brown at Oxford reads as a node in the nexus between Coleridge's early days and Hughes's anachronistic utopian efforts during the dawning of modernity.

Or, if you're more inclined to study "manly christianity" or the residual effects of Christian Socialism on the mind of Hughes, then this book is also for you.

Aside from the interesting critical aspects, the characters that Hughes creates in this book are the type of personalities that you laugh at while appreciating their earnestness. If you're particularly nostalgic, then you wish that you're own experience with higher education could be so quixotic.
