Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents a thoughtful historical overview of the state of education in Virginia, from the time of the Revolution to the 19th century. The author contends that the state of learning declined after the Revolution due to a premature preoccupation with politics among young people, which led to a neglect of classical education and an overall decline in learning. The author traces the history of education in Virginia, including the role of the clergy and the establishment of the College of William and Mary. He discusses the value of a classical education and the importance of fostering a love of learning for its own sake. The book concludes by expressing the hope that Virginia will once again become a center of learning and culture, a fitting tribute to its rich history and traditions. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781527653153_0
