This is the text of the Rede Lecture given in the University of Cambridge by the Rt.Hon.Lord Jenkins of Hillhead on 10 May 1988. Lord Jenkins takes as his theme the relationship between Oxford and Cambridge over the centuries in an attempt to analyze their similarities and differences. Characteristically, Lord Jenkins is not just concerned with the universities' response to and shaping of education, but with their role as the nursery of great statesmen and public figures, and it is in this that he sees one of the essential differences between the Oxford and Cambridge styles.
