Oxford university is the state finishing school for the rich, nobles etc and others who might be considered useful within the state.
Oxford hates the english language and has bastardised it with Oxford english, a greco-latin frankenstein dialect.
Students were prohibited from speaking english, on or off the premises - otherwise they got birched.
Oxford had to be dragged screaming into the enlightenment, considering, apart from certain ruling class skills, the classics more important (latin/greek)
It's clerical background equiped it well for disinformation (history) and the secret services..
I'm just posting this mention of a book because it highlights Oxford culture and influence.
I'm not recommending it. I won't read be reading it.
