We also know that the first name of the original institution of high studies is Studium generale. In 1203 is introduced the denomination of Universitas (magistrorum-scholarium-studiorum generalium). For six centuries - until the 18th century, included – this name will compete with that one and with other denominations (Academy- Gymnasium), until it remains as the only one in the 19th century.. Furthermore the adjective universitas, that had had – through the 19th century – different meanings, finally has - in the 20th century – only one meaning. This doesn't happen -since the 19th century- with the adjective facultas, that preserves its polyvalent value. The study is based mainly on primary sources and secondly on monographs published by those illustrious editors since&nbsp;the end of the 19th century and, for Spain, since the second half of the 20th century.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Keywords</strong>: Universitas; Studium Generale; Middles ages; Modern ages.</p> ER -
