An effortless 90-minute bus-ride from the heart of London, Oxford is one of the last bastions of Turkish studies in the United Kingdom, not to mention Ottoman and Byzantine studies. The city's Classical cluster of dreaming spires, such as the Radcliffe Camera's (below), is an open-air museum of ancient colleges. Here, too, is the Ashmolean Museum with the Arundel Marbles, while Magdalen College has a collection of Kütahya pottery, described by John Carswell in Cornucopia 46. .jpg)
