Van Gildestein naar Uithof : 150 jaar diergeneeskundig onderwijs in Utrecht

Author: C. Offringa

Utrecht : Faculteit der Diergeneeskunde R.U. Utrecht, 1971-1981. – 2 dl

 

The first volume, published as a dissertation in 1972, under the title: ‘s Rijks veeartsenijschool. Veterinary High School 1821-1925.
The material assembled in these two volumes is a resource for various groups of historians. The content is more than a barren enumeration of facts, more than a compilation of annual reports or data from almanacs. Moreover, the text is well documented. The content of the material has posed problems for the author, which will not surprise anyone who tries to give an overview of ‘modern’ developments in the institutions of education and scientific research, and moreover tries to place them in the social and political conditions of the period. Hence the author has secured helpers, largely former professors, who were still active in the period.
