توضیح
Universities emerged as self-governing bodies of masters and students from roughly the twelfth century onward, growing out of existing cathedral and city schools in a handful of centres. Attributing them to Charlemagne fails because his court schools trained clergy and officials some three centuries earlier and neither governed themselves nor granted a formal standing at the end of study.
