Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a remarkable chronicle of the life of Thomas Platter, a wandering scholar and schoolmaster in 16th century Switzerland. His autobiography offers a unique glimpse into the educational practices and intellectual currents of the period. Platter's journey from a humble goatherd to a respected teacher reflects the changing educational landscape of the Renaissance, where new humanistic ideas challenged traditional religious dogma. Through his vivid storytelling, Platter captures the essence of the wandering scholar, driven by an insatiable thirst for knowledge that led them to travel from one university to another in search of renowned teachers and intellectual stimulation. Along the way, he encounters a colorful cast of charactersâ"from stern masters to generous patronsâ"who shape his journey. The book provides an intimate look at the daily life of a schoolmaster, the challenges of teaching, and the profound impact of religious reform on education. Platter's experiences highlight the complex interplay between humanism, religion, and social change that characterized this transformative era.
