At that time, university teachers were employed by students, without the dignity of teachers and subject to many constraints. When they leave the city, they must pay a deposit in case they never come back.
This is the embryonic form of "contract spirit" in modern society.
In order to compete with students, teachers also organize their own guilds. Paris University, which was built 50 years later than Bologna University, is a typical example.
Medieval universities have a profound tradition of autonomy. Even the colleges within the university have been fighting for their independent legal status and are unwilling to be under the jurisdiction of the university. For example, Cambridge University has its own school police, and the police in the Cambridge town where it is located have no right to supervise the school staff, but the school police can arrest the residents in the town. It is equivalent to "concession".
The courses in medieval universities are mainly "seven arts of liberal arts", which are divided into "three subjects" and "four arts". "Three subjects" are the basis, namely grammar, rhetoric and logic. The "four arts" are a little more advanced, that is, arithmetic, geometry, astronomy and music.
Pragmatism dominated the university curriculum in the Middle Ages, which was not where the aristocratic tradition came into play.
In the Middle Ages, universities attached great importance to logic, which led to the tradition of attaching importance to rigor and communication in western academic circles.
From the titles of western books, we can see how much they paid for accurate expression and standardized description.
People in China are not very logical, which is largely restricted by language.
