Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the work of Horace Mann during his tenure at Antioch College, paying particular attention to the educational ideals that drove his reforms and the social context that shaped both his philosophy and his implementation of it. The author positions Mann's work within the broader history of educational reform in the United States and within the shifting religious milieu of the time, noting that one of Mann's major goals as an educator was to encourage progress and evolution in religious thought, not just in secular education. Thematically, the book examines the tension between Mann's high-minded vision of the college as a breeding ground for socially conscious, intellectually curious individuals and the more complicated reality on the ground, which was marked by financial difficulties, sectarian rifts, and Mann's own personal struggles. Ultimately, the book presents a candid look at the complexities and contradictions inherent in the implementation of educational reform, while highlighting the ways in which Mann's legacy has shaped educational thought and practice in the United States. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
