A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Nicholas Comenius, the aim has been to present a faithful picture of conditions in school life, which during the past forty years have come within the observation and experience of the writer but which now exist only in memory. The book has been written, not to glorify the old nor to reflect unjustly on the new, but rather with the hope that it may deepen a love and inspire a more lasting veneration for the old schoolmasters of other days, around whose memory still linger, in the hearts of the older generation, so many endearing recollections of their boyhood days. Believing that there was enough of good in the older dispensation to make it worthy of the younger the young men and women who have so recently entered the teachers calling some of its salient features have been thrown into contrast with the new order of things. If the comparison is not always to the advantage of the present, it is to be hoped that this fact may indicate the value of a closer study of the past.
