Notes

'The statement that all universities are descended either directly or by migration from these three prototypes [Oxford, Paris, and Bologna] depends, of course, on one's definition of a university. And I must define a university very strictly here. A university is something more than a center of higher education and study. One must reserve the term university for—and I'm quoting Rashdall here—"a scholastic guild, whether of masters or students, engaged in higher education and study," which was later defined, after the emergence of universities, as "studium generale".'<ref name='Hyde 1991'>Hyde, J. K. (1991). "Universities and Cities in Medieval Italy". In Bender, Thomas (ed.). The university and the city: from medieval origins to the present. Oxford: Oxford University Press. pp. 13–14.

[note1-156] This ranking counts the value of a recipe used in a foreign country as an export, therefore, it is rather a cultural ranking over the influence of cuisine than an economical one.

[note2-161] The University of Bologna is the first by date at which the educational institute met the traditional definition of a university[Note 1]

[note1-198] Includes times won when Serbia was part of Yugoslavia and Serbia and Montenegro

[160] 'The statement that all universities are descended either directly or by migration from these three prototypes [Oxford, Paris, and Bologna] depends, of course, on one's definition of a university. And I must define a university very strictly here. A university is something more than a center of higher education and study. One must reserve the term university for—and I'm quoting Rashdall here—"a scholastic guild, whether of masters or students, engaged in higher education and study," which was later defined, after the emergence of universities, as "studium generale".'<ref name='Hyde 1991'>Hyde, J.
