Teaching within Oxford's stone walls dates as far back as the 11th century,

and the school is considered a paradigm for all college campuses. With its

labyrinth of quads, cloisters, and archways, it evokes elegance and tradition

at every turn. "Its monastic roots and the spectacular quality of its

buildings make it an architectural wonderland," says David Mayernik, associate

professor at Notre Dame's School of Architecture. The famous Radcliffe Camera,

built in 1737 as a Science Building, and now a hushed reading room for

students, is "the most covetable university building in the world."

牛津大學石墻內，傳道授業的歷史可追溯至11世紀，而它也早被視作所有成功大學校園的

典范。四合院，回廊還有拱門遍布各個角落，宛如迷宮，這些古老的建筑無一不都散發出

典雅迷人的傳統氣息。美國圣母大學(Notre Dame)建筑學院副教授大衛·邁耶尼克

（David Mayernik)如此講述：“修道院的傳統根源和各類氣勢恢弘的建筑物，使牛津大

學成為一個建筑仙境。”它的標志性建筑，始建于1737年的拉德克里夫圖書館(Radcliffe

Camera),早年曾是科學樓，現在已成為一座靜謐的學生閱覽室，它可是“全世界最令人稱

羨的大學建筑”。
