Every one who wishes to become a Barrister or Solicitor—the two departments into which the practice of Law is divided in England—must have kept nine Terms at the Inns of Court, or have served five years as an articled clerk in some solicitor’s office, and must pass certain examinations. These are not under the control of the University, though certain exemptions and concessions are granted to those students who have passed examinations at the University. [Sidenote: Theology.] The subjects of the Final Examination in Theology are—(1) specified portions of the Holy Scriptures based on a study of the original texts, including (_a_) the history, religion, and literature of Israel, and (_b_) the history, theology, and literature of the New Testament; and (2) the history and doctrine of the Christian Church till 461 A. D.; this is based mainly on the study of Eusebius and certain Patristic texts. In addition there are certain optional subjects—Hebrew, Evidences of Religion, Liturgies, Archaeology and Textual Criticism of the Old and New Testaments, and certain special subjects. The main subjects of study for this examination are historical. ‘In addition to this training in historical method, the School also affords scope for education in scholarship, in so far as some texts must be read in the original languages.’ The candidate has a choice of texts in Greek, Latin, and Hebrew. There is a good course of inter-collegiate lectures, and the Professorial lectures offer a very wide range of subjects. The library facilities are excellent. There are a number of other institutions not directly connected with the University which offer additional opportunities for study and instruction. [Sidenote: Oriental Languages.] The courses given in this School are intended ‘for the most part for the practical acquisition of the language studied’, and are of special value to candidates reading for the Indian Civil Service. ‘The general subjects are Sanskrit, Arabic, Hebrew, and Persian, and History as connected with the literature of those languages.’ There is a well-equipped library and museum in the Indian Institute.
