English in Oxford
Oxford is renowned as one of England's two great university towns, steeped in history and tradition.
Well-renowned as a seat of learning and tradition for over 800 years, Oxford has centuries of history to unveil whilst at the same time has not failed to remain in the present. With all the high street shops and many contemporary bars and restaurants, Oxford has a traditional covered market, gift and antique shops, as well as some of the finest bookshops in the world. Traditional pubs can be found that were once frequented by famous writers such as C. S. Lewis and J. R. R. Tolkien and more recently, TV detective Inspector Morse.
Oxford is a lively cultural centre and offers a wide variety of performing arts featuring distinguished artists. Music at Oxford presents concerts in historic settings such as the Sheldonian Theatre, Christ Church Cathedral and the Holywell Music Room. The City of Oxford Orchestra offers Summer Proms and a programme of 'Beautiful Music in Beautiful Places'. opera, ballet, pantomime, musicals and major concerts are all in the programme at the Apollo Theatre, and the Oxford Playhouse has Shakespeare, modern drama, comedy and musicals in its programme.
Local customs and traditions include the May Morning (May Day) when choristers sing madrigals from the top of Magdalen College Tower from 6.00am. Another custom is the rounding up of horses and cattle on Port Meadow once a year - this is to ensure that only those belonging to freemen of the city are benefiting from grazing rights there which are controlled by the Sheriff of Oxford. The Sheriff's Races are held on nearby Wolvercote Common annually in July. During spring and summer, Morris Dancers put on displays in and around the public houses in the city.
Oxford is famous for its bookshops - Blackwell's, Thornton's, Parker's and Dillon's are superb places to browse. And when it comes to refreshments, many of the city's fascinating pubs are open all day and serve light meals as well as a good range of ales.
Facilities: Free email and internet access, language laboratory, libraries, videos, computer centre, internet café and bookshop.
