| Abstract: | This volume documents the academic and administrative proceedings of the University of Malta from 1839 to 1883, documenting a period of established institutional tradition and growth. It primarily details the annual ceremonies held at the University Church to inaugurate the scholastic year, which featured formal orations by professors across various disciplines and the distribution of prizes and silver medals to distinguished students from the Valletta and Three Cities Lyceums. The manuscript provides a comprehensive record of the conferment of doctorates and degrees in the core faculties of Theology, Laws, and Medicine and Surgery, including notable events such as the 1839 visit of Her Majesty Dowager Queen Adelaide. Additionally, the records capture specialized academic activity, including private graduation ceremonies, the appointment of faculty such as the Professor of Primary Instruction, and the inauguration of new professional roles within the University's clinical and legal branches. |
