When England had only two universities, Germany had about fifty, intended to train clerics and admninistrators. . . . Instead of passively acquiring established knowledge, students were expected to learn how to do original research, helped by the new institution of the research seminar. These innovations have fed slowly into British universities, where Mark Pattison was almost alone in advocating reseearch in nineteenth-century Oxford. — Ritchie Robertson, Times Literary Supplement (1 October 2010): 7
