While working on the undergraduate curriculum at the University of Virginia (UVA), the author realized that a university might be called “a space and time set aside and made free for higher learning,” (p. 2) but that proved to be a narrow understanding of what such an institution actually was. Organized in three sections and 13 chapters, an Introduction, an Interlude, and a Conclusion, <em>After the University</em> is a book that traces the evolution of the university from medieval times through Enlightenment and finally into the modern world.</p> Dan Manolescu Copyright (c) 2026 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 2026-10-21 2026-10-21 7 6 1 7 10.46809/jpse.v7i6.169
