Abstract

THE University of Bologna has decided to celebrate its eight hundredth anniversary in the spring of 1888. The exact date of its foundation cannot, indeed, be determined, but all authorities on the subject agree that an important school was established at Bologna in the eleventh century. Afterwards the University took a great place as the chief centre for the study of jurisprudence, and there also anatomy was for the first time scientifically studied. The foremost Universities of Europe and America will no doubt be glad to take this opportunity of testifying their respect for so ancient and famous an institution.
