But before we turn, we should notice a fact of some importance. In speaking of the Royal Injunctions of 1535 for Cambridge, Mullinger says,
The day that saw the leaves of Duns Scotus fluttering in the quadrant of New College, may be regarded as marking the downfal of scholasticism in England; and here, if anywhere, may be drawn the line that in university history divides the mediaeval from the modern age.4'
The break of 1534, which occasioned these injunctions of 1535, had similar effects upon the Petty School."' And now we are seeing the same process in the Grammar School; that is, Mullinger's conclusion is correct for the whole school system of England. It could be shown that the same dividing line must be taken between mediaeval and modern literature in England, but that demonstration would itself require volumes in order to be conclusive as a demonstration.
