This 1950 map captures postwar Oxford — rationing still in effect, the colleges beginning to reopen fully after wartime use, and a literary circle at Magdalen that would produce \u003cem\u003eThe Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe\u003c\/em\u003e that same year. The \"dreaming spires\" (Matthew Arnold's phrase) are all there: Magdalen Tower, the Bodleian, Christ Church, the Radcliffe Camera.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFaculty across the humanities — history, philosophy, classics, English, theology — tend to have an Oxford affinity regardless of where they studied.
