"The present volume is structured in two parts and four chapters, with argument, partial and general conclusions accompanied by a bibliography used as a support and reference point. The theoretical fraction is interested in establishing the origin, the progressive evolution of the university (from medieval times to contemporaneity) and its status as an institution, to which are added the necessary clarifications regarding the scope of the phrases: academic freedom, academic culture, campus novel, university professor, student, etc. Maria Cristina Gelep believes that the poses of university life, the physiognomy of the university environment and the physiology of the functions constitute the driving axis of the academic novel, outlined proteiformly, with the highlighting of the considerable mutations undergone according to the educational reforms and societal transformations."
