Book Synopsis Vittorino Da Feltre and Other Humanist Educators; Essays and Versions by : William Harrison Woodward
Download or read book Vittorino Da Feltre and Other Humanist Educators; Essays and Versions written by William Harrison Woodward and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Book excerpt: 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!

This book was released on 2018-01-13 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Teaching of History in Elementary Schools To-day the attention of everyone is fixed on the history that is being made from hour to hour. Our grasp of the ideals which we have formed in the past is being put to the test, and the course of the future is being determined. Patriotism is not a matter of discussion, but of action. The connection between the lessons which the citizens of Great Britain have learned from their knowledge of her history and the significance which they attach to the present momentous struggle is so close that we hope to -be pardoned for publishing a book on the teaching of history even at such a time. It is true that, in the midst of such events, it is hard to view the past in its proper perspective and not to regard the whole course of his tory from the standpoint of the present issues. The book, however, was in the main written before the war, when it was possible to look back on the past and for ward into the future with less emotion and more cold blooded judgment. What emboldens us to publish it now is that, reading our manuscript again in these days when interpretations of history are being tested in the fire, we see nothing to withdraw and little to alter.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Education and the Army: An Essay in Reconstruction It is with considerable diffidence that I set myself to try and give some account of the origins, development, and purpose of the great adult education movement in the Army which it fell to my lot to organize and direct. Such account must of necessity be rather of a personal character, and it seemed better, therefore, if it was thought to be necessary at all, that it should be written by an observer rather than by a participator. But it has been very strongly represented to me by men of much distinction, and acquainted both with what was attempted and with what was achieved, that there is no one else whose experience was sufficiently comprehensive to enable him to undertake the task, and that it is a task which definitely ought to be undertaken.

This book was released on 2017-12-03 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in the Teaching of History The following pages are concerned with the teaching Of boys and girls in the middle forms Of secondary schools, and even for this stage deal with only a small number Of the numerous problems presented by the teaching Of history. They aim at bringing into strong relief a few fundamental positions, and make no claim to be an ex haustive treatment of the subject. If, therefore, certain methods and principles of proved value are not men tioned, it must not be concluded that they have been either overlooked or undervalued. My thanks for valuable advice are due to my colleague Miss A. J. Cooper, to Mr. J. Wells, Fellow and Tutor of Wadham College, to Mr. J. B. Baker, Tutor to the Non Collegiate Students, and to Mr. E. Barker, Fellow and Tutor Of St. John's College. It must not be assumed that they are necessarily in agreement with my views.

C. Black in permitting me to use extracts from their publication, E nglis/t History I llustrated from Original Sources.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Teaching the Drama and the Essay And so it comes to pass that great books impart a knowledge of human nature - general and par ticular. They teach us to know man and to know men. How one grows in spiritual and intellectual stature as he reads Macaulay's essay on Milton! He discovers that Cavalier and Puritan are not merely two figures in English history but that they are two eternal human types, and that he himself approximates to one or the otherand possesses cor responding advantages and defects. He sees now as never before that loyalty is sometimes unright cous and that righteousness is sometimes disloyal; that the good man finds it hard to be a tolerant man, and that the man who puts not virtue in the first place will be ultimately overcome. And the great blind poet, hitherto an abstraction, becomes real to him, and like himself a child Of Heaven and' a child of sin, like himself the victim of pain and penury and circumstance, like himself tormented by unrealized ideals and the agony Of unrest. And all this and ever so much more, be it remarked in passing, one may secure from the essay without so much as suspecting that Macaulay wrote balanced sentences.

This book was released on 2018-05-05 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Historical Essay and the Critical Review: Some Suggestions as to Their Preparation, With Examples Taken From American History The critic is not a base caviler, but the younger brother of genius. Next to invention is the power of interpreting invention: next to beauty the power of appreciating beauty - Margaret Fuller. Several times during the year the student will be called upon to prepare a paper on some historical book. If one is going to pass an honest judg ment on a work it is clear that the first duty is carefully and thoroughly to read it, taking note of its important features. The author may expect this consideration from the reviewer, for a book is the fruit of toil and thought The great Petrarch, in speaking of his letters, puts the author's case: I desire, he says, that my reader, whoever he may he, should think of me alone, not of his daughter's wedding, his mistress's embraces, the wiles of his enemy, his engagements, horse, lands or money. I want him to pay attention to me. If his affairs are pressing, let him postpone reading the letter, but when he does read, let him throw aside the burden of business and family cares, and fix his mind upon the matter before him. I do not wish him to carry on his business and attend to my letter at the same time. I will not have him gain without any exertion what has not been produced without labor on my part. After careful reading, with his notes arranged in order, the reviewer begins upon his composition. In such a piece of writing it is obviously well to intrigue the attention of the prospective reader at the start by some remarks of general introduction, to lead him from concerns of his own day's routine into a mood in which he can appreciate the essay which is to be set before him. Since the book is the product of a certain human mind and inevitably bears the marks of its creator's strength or weakness, it is also desirable to discover and to state the bare facts, of the author's life and the efiect which his environment and the circumstances of his career were bound to have upon his views and his work. What merits, if any, have been ascribed to his work in general? What experience or preparation qualified him to undertake the task in hand? Exactly when and under what conditions was it written?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Let Him First Be a Man and Other Essays: Chiefly Relating to Education and Culture The opening chapters are intended to depict the potential man, the ideal being which it is the highest purpose of education to perfect. On the teacher's conception of the worth and dignity of human nature, and equally on the learner's self-respect, and reverence for the divine workmanship which makes his body the "quintessence of dust," and his soul "the infinite in faculties," - on these depend the processes of that nurture and training which fit men to live the best and most useful life. After discussing, in brief, the nature and educability of man, and the motive of all education, the writer ventures to make a few suggestions concerning the special function of schools in the vast work of general education, and touches slightly upon methods of government and instruction, under the inclusive heading "Schoolmastery." Then follow brief essays on the essential elements of mental and moral development, and on the importance of reading as a means to superior culture. About a third part of the volume is taken up with studies in the history of education. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Literature in School written by Horace Elisha Scudder and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-17 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Literature in School: An Address and Two Essays The motive which urged our fathers to the establishment of schools was professedly drawn from religion; the motive which impels us to-day is professedly drawn 'from politics. If you could have asked John Cotton why it was well that the children of Massachusetts Bay should be sent to school, his reply would have been, that they might learn to fear God. If you ask yourselves why the Commonwealth provides common schools, the answer is, that the children may become good citi zens. In the former case the conception of religion was bound up with the conception of a particular ecclesiastical order; in the latter, the conception of politics is limited by the special form of society in which it has play. The former anticipated the political conception, for the germ of a free state lay imbedded in the combined theocratic and com mercial company; the latter has not lost the reli gions conception, for it guards jealously the vested rights of religious bodies. In both cases the human mind is seen struggling toward a larger liberty. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
