A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

In preparing this work, as one of a series of treatises for a course of ethical instruction for the young, the author has had but one purpose before him to develop and establish the simple, recognized duties and obligations pertaining to Ufe in the Home and the Family. He has no new theories of his own to offer in connection with this subject, and no new scheme of family Ufe. The plan is conservative throughout. He has only sought to bring together the leading facts pertaining to this institution which have been taught by the long experience of the human race. It is his conviction that this should form a part of the education of the young as one of the studies in our public schools. At the same time the author has been painfully aware of the difficulties confronting him. On the whole, it is the most embarrassing subject for treatment in all this series of volumes upon which he has been long at work.. While the facts are simple enough when arranged for the minds of young children, the task itself has called intp requisition all the study he has done at universities in this and other countries, with all the reading and thinking of many years, both in ethical philosophy and social science. He has felt that it would have been far easier in many respects to have written a treatise on the ethics of family life for adults. Behind these simple teachings for children, there must be in the mind of the author a consistent or harmonious attitude in social philosophy. Works of this nature may require as much scholarship of a certain kind as those prepared for advanced students in the science of ethics. The book is intended to supply the text or material for teaching purposes, not as a study of the family as an institution.
