译文:
传统上,在这些学院中,法律学习一直被看成是律师的特权,而非受过教育之人必备的知识素养。
点睛:
traditionally为整句的状语。preserve此处为名词,意为“某人专有的活动、爱好”。rather than...为主语补足语。

与副词rather相关的常见短语还有:
*would rather宁愿,宁可
I'd rather have a quiet night, reading my favorite
book.晚上我宁愿安静地看我喜欢的书。
*or rather更确切地说
You have to be eighteen for cheap tickets-or rather under eighteen.
你必须是18岁才能买便宜的票——更确切地说,是不满18岁。
*not...but rather...不是…而是…
