Dieses Buch habe ich mir geholt, weil mich das Thema - der Machtkampf an der Sorbonne - interessiert hat. Dieser Teil des Buches hat mich auch nicht enttäuscht, ich habe jede Menge Anregungen zum Weiterlesen, zum Nachforschen mitgenommen. Allerdings hätte ich mir gewünscht, dass die Figuren interessanter und weniger nervig angelegt worden wären und die Liebesgeschichten und verhinderten Liebesgeschichten nicht so sehr in den Vordergrund gezerrt worden wären. Einige der Nebenfiguren haben mich allerdings dafür entschädigen können. Trotzdem, eine spannende Geschichte vor einer interessanten Kulisse, die durch den Schreibstil des Autors sehr lebendig und bunt wirkt. Als Wissenschaftlerin ist mir bewusst, welch hohes Gut die Freiheit von Forschung und Lehre ist. Dass mit der Gründung der Pariser Sorbonne ein Gelehrtenstreik verbunden war, wusste ich nicht, auch die sonstigen Umstände waren mir unklar, etwa die Rolle der Kopisten oder dass bereits 1229 Bildungsaufstieg möglich war (wenn auch nur für Männer). Wie bei Peter Prange üblich, sind die interessanten Fakten mit einer gut zu lesenden Geschichte garniert, diesmal um den jungen wissbegierigen Schusterssohn Robert. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha

"The Rose of the World" - this is how the University of Paris, founded in 1229, is praised throughout the Occident. It is a time when leading scientific thinkers want to practise their sciences without the church's blessing. This turns out not to be so easy, as the queen mother is very devout and domineering, while her underage son believes in science and would like to study this with renowned personalities.
Paul and Robert, two young men who grew up in the same village, want to study in Paris. While Robert takes this very seriously, Paul is a bon vivant and chases every skirt. He also runs a typing pool where copies of lectures and scientific papers are copied. Robert, on the other hand, wants to study theology and knows that he would have to be celibate. Will he succeed?
At carnival, they both get caught up in a "donkey mass", an orgiastic celebration by the students to mock the bishop and the priests. A riot breaks out, soldiers massacre the students. The aftermath shakes Paris and all of France. The Sorbonne goes on strike, a power struggle begins between the magisters and their students on the one hand and the authorities of church and state on the other. In the storm of unleashed powers, Robert must choose between his love of science and his career - and his love for the beautiful Marie, in whom he has found a soul mate. But Marie is the wife of his best friend Paul.
Once again a great novel that I highly recommend. ( )
