二、歷史沿革
Leiden University was the first university to be established in the Netherlands. William of Orange gave Leiden Academia Lugduno Batava in 1575, it is said in recognition of the city’s courageous resistance against the seige by the Spanish invaders. Our motto is praesidium libertatis – bastion of freedom. One famous example of this commitment to freedom is the speech delivered by Professor Cleveringa in 1940 when he delivered a speech protesting against the threatened dismissal of his Jewish colleagues. Leiden University celebrates this courageous act every year in the form of the Cleveringa lecture in Leiden and similar lectures held throughout the world. It is freedom that unites us even today.
在1575年，威廉王子管理著歐洲少數(shù)沒(méi)有大學(xué)的地區(qū)之一。此時(shí)文藝復(fù)興已開(kāi)始凸顯學(xué)術(shù)研究的重要性;為了獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)萊頓市民在1574年抵抗西班牙軍隊(duì)的英勇表現(xiàn)，威廉王子遂在此設(shè)立大學(xué)。傳說(shuō)威廉王子當(dāng)時(shí)給萊頓市民兩個(gè)選擇，一者是免稅，一者是大學(xué);市民認(rèn)為免稅令可被撤銷(xiāo)，大學(xué)卻能延續(xù)百年，是故選擇了后者。萊頓大學(xué)內(nèi)設(shè)有荷蘭最早的植物園——萊頓植物園。萊頓大學(xué)仍執(zhí)許多研究領(lǐng)域之牛耳，包括自然科學(xué)、醫(yī)學(xué)、社會(huì)與行為科學(xué)、法學(xué)、藝術(shù)及文學(xué)等等，并與四十余個(gè)國(guó)立研究機(jī)構(gòu)合作。荷蘭的最高學(xué)術(shù)榮譽(yù)──斯賓諾莎獎(jiǎng)的28位得主中，有7位在萊頓執(zhí)教。Academiegebouw里懸掛著創(chuàng)校以來(lái)的著名教授畫(huà)像。獲得獨(dú)立后的荷蘭隨著經(jīng)濟(jì)和政治迅速崛起，也為大學(xué)教育的發(fā)展創(chuàng)造了必備的條件，但是當(dāng)時(shí)的萊頓大學(xué)要想躋身世界一流大學(xué)的行列，就必須不惜重金，招聘到第一流的學(xué)者來(lái)校任教。在創(chuàng)辦初期，萊頓大學(xué)就從歐洲各國(guó)招聘到各個(gè)學(xué)科的著名學(xué)者，并且為他們提供最優(yōu)厚的待遇。正是這些來(lái)自不同國(guó)家的大師們來(lái)校任教，才為剛剛創(chuàng)辦的萊頓大學(xué)搭建起了包括語(yǔ)言學(xué)、醫(yī)學(xué)、天文學(xué)、自然科學(xué)在內(nèi)的一系列學(xué)科框架。許多外國(guó)人慕名來(lái)到這里求學(xué)。學(xué)校統(tǒng)一使用拉丁文授課，所以來(lái)自德國(guó)、法國(guó)、蘇格蘭、奧地利等國(guó)大學(xué)生都可以在這里聽(tīng)課。萊頓大學(xué)是荷蘭天文學(xué)和考古學(xué)研究的發(fā)源地。1927年，沃爾特教授提供了充分的證據(jù)，表明太陽(yáng)系的所有星球都圍繞銀河系的中心旋轉(zhuǎn)。
