A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book has grown out of the lectures given by the author in Cornell University during the past six years, and it comprises the last half of his course on the history of education. There should be a place, not only amongst teachers, but also in a very considerable class of enlightened friends of education, for a work depicting in a moderate compass the rise and development of modern methods of instruction, the growth of educational systems and organizations, and the course of modern ideas of education as revealed in the works of representative men. Though much that may 1)0 given in such a work naturally has its important forerunners in far earlier ages, still the course of educational events since the revival of learning in the loth century, has in itself sucli a degree of self-dependence as adai)ts it for separate treatment. Besides, it is )robable that many persons who would be eager to know the more recent precursors of the present condition of education, would be less interested in ancient and mediaeval methods and means of instruction, or in the ideas of education expressed by ancient sages ;at least until a knowledge of later educational history should have excited in them the desire for an acquaintance with tlie fathers of educational efforts and thought. With this view this book is offered to the public.
