dbo:abstract
  • Rivalry between the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge is a phenomenon going back many centuries. During most of that time, they were the only two universities in England and Wales, making the rivalry more intense than it is now. The University of Oxford and the University of Cambridge, sometimes collectively known as Oxbridge, are the two oldest universities in England. Both were founded more than 800 years ago, and between them they have produced a large number of Britain's most prominent scientists, writers and politicians, as well as noted figures in many other fields. Yet for many of these centuries the two universities were unrecognisable as universities in the modern sense, as they were largely institutions for producing clergymen and were thus strongly tied to the Church. Competition between Oxford and Cambridge also has a long history, dating back to around 1208 when Cambridge was founded by scholars taking refuge from hostile townsmen in Oxford. (en)
  • L'Università di Oxford e l'Università di Cambridge, note insieme come Oxbridge, sono le due più antiche università britanniche. Entrambe con una storia plurisecolare, tra esse sono cresciuti molti tra i più prominenti scienziati, scrittori e statisti britannici, così come altre note figure in molti diversi campi. Anche la rivalità tra Oxford e Cambridge ha una lunga storia che risale al 1209, quando Cambridge fu fondata da un gruppo di studiosi in cerca di rifugio dall'ostilità degli abitanti di Oxford. (it)
