Essays On The Teaching Of History Classic Reprint

Excerpt from Essays on the Teaching of History The Syndics of the University Press confided the oversight of this collection of Essays to Lord Acton and myself. An Introduction by Lord Acton was to have been included but his unfortunate illness prevented this part of the arrangement from being carried out. Professor Maitland, under circumstances which make our obligation to him the greater, has kindly written the Introduction. I may be permitted to thank the contributors for kindness which has made the mechanical part which I have performed such a pleasant one.

Excerpt from The Century and the School, and Other Educational Essays The essays brought together in this volume were selected, by a group of his intimate asso ciates, from the manuscripts of Superintend ent F. Louis Soldan, after his death.

Excerpt from Vittorino Da Feltre and Other Humanist Educators; Essays and Versions: An Introduction to the History of Classical Education The present volume is offered as an introduction to the study of education of the first period of Renaissance, the century which followed the death of Petrarch. The work falls into three divisions. The first treats of the career of the characteristic Humanist School-master, Vittorino da Feltre. The second consists of four noteworthy treatises on education produced during this period, not now readily accessible to students. These are here presented in English versions. In the third section I have aimed at setting forth a general review of education as conceived by humanist scholars. The subject is of interest in more than one direction. It bears immediately upon the broader conceptions which we form of the civilisation and ideals of the Renaissance in its earlier and less self-conscious stage; inasmuch as the educational aim of any age, if scientifically thought out, must express, with some precision, the moral and intellectual temper of the time. In the next place, though less directly, light is thrown by such enquiry as the present upon the development of classical scholarship. Its relation to the history of educational ideals and methods needs no insistence. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Modern Teacher: Essays on Educatioal Aims and Methods The limits of space precluded Art, Music, and one or two other subjects with a claim to appear in the list of contents. English has two Essays devoted to it, as a sign of its capital importance, not yet always recog nized in the curricula of English schools. Citizenship is a new subject in our school time-tables; but in America, under the name of Civics, it has already an established place. The training of character eludes the binet-simon or any similar test, yet no volume on teaching can be con sidered complete that does not deal with it. It is given in different types of schools in different ways; but the underlying principles that are here presented are of general application. Happy the school where they inspire traditions and ideals, or poems like Clifton Chapel, potent to mould the adolescent life!

Excerpt from Addresses and Essays: On Subjects of History, Education, and Government A good definition of the work of the Church divides that work under four heads, - Worship, Charity, Hospitality, and Education.
