The study of law has been recognized for centuries as a basic intellectual discipline in European universities. However, only in recent years has it become a feature of undergraduate programs in Canadian universities. Traditionally, legal learning has been viewed in such institutions as the special preserve of lawyers, rather than a necessary part of the intellectual euuinment of an educated person.
就从语境来看,intellectual这里是作名词,表示知识分子的学科(intellectual discipline),对吗?
