Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Planting of Princeton College The interest of Charles in the education of his people was sin cere and profound and he could have secured no one as his minis ter of education better fitted than was Alcuin, by learning and ardor and industry, to organize a system of schools for the king dom. It is not too much to say, that the future of large and gen creus culture in western Europe had never since the breaking up of the Western Empire appeared brighter than it did when, at the close of the eighth century, Charlemagne was crowned in Rome as the successor of Constantine. But with the death of Charles and the division of his kingdom, the seculum obscurum may almost be said to have commenced. The power which had been centralized in the crown was dissipated throughout the empire. Those who had been the emperor's administrative agents, representing him as lords of the counties, became hereditary and almost independent sovereigns over their small domains. Instead of a strong monarch, a multitude of feudal lords ruled western Europe. This dissipa tion of power was followed by disaster to some of the highest interests of society. It made possible the pornocracy in the capi tal of Christendom. It substituted for a large and imposing government a multitude of small and warring tyrannies. On nothing was its in uence more disastrous than on the schools of the liberal arts which Charles and Alcuin had labored so hard to establish and endow. Evervwhere they fell into decay and with their decay, worship became more sensuous and religion more superstitious and less moral, until there appeared no good ground for hope of a revival of learning, or of a reformation of religion, or of the reorganization of society.

Download or read book How to Grow Old written by Marcus Tullius Cicero and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2016-03-29 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Timeless wisdom on growing old gracefully from one of ancient Rome's greatest philosophers Worried that old age will inevitably mean losing your libido, your health, and possibly your marbles too? Well, Cicero has some good news for you. In How to Grow Old, the great Roman orator and statesman eloquently describes how you can make the second half of life the best part of all—and why you might discover that reading and gardening are actually far more pleasurable than sex ever was. Filled with timeless wisdom and practical guidance, Cicero's brief, charming classic—written in 44 BC and originally titled On Old Age—has delighted and inspired readers, from Saint Augustine to Thomas Jefferson, for more than two thousand years. Presented here in a lively new translation with an informative new introduction and the original Latin on facing pages, the book directly addresses the greatest fears of growing older and persuasively argues why these worries are greatly exaggerated—or altogether mistaken. Montaigne said Cicero's book "gives one an appetite for growing old." The American founding father John Adams read it repeatedly in his later years. And today its lessons are more relevant than ever in a world obsessed with the futile pursuit of youth.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Class of 1895, Princeton University: Quindecennial Record, 1895-1910 Scattered through its pages are some pictures of Princeton's newer buildings. As a physical plant, the College has doubled in size during the fifteen years since we were launched upon an expectant world. Princeton's material and architectural progress is but the outward sign of her intellectual and scholar ly awakening. In these things we have pride; perhaps also a sense of relief that we were permitted to graduate before the advent of rigid requirements. Some snap-shots of the Class Reunion have been added. As a frontispiece you will recognize the D. Q. Brown Long Distance Cup, won fairly by Ray Carter who left his work in the Punjab, Province of India to travel half-way round the world and spend a week in Princeton with the Class of Ninety Five.

The cab drove way around Nassau street, a long narrow thoroughfare, flanked on the one side by Shops, on the other by college buildings; thence up Wash ington Road, and onto the campus by a more remote entrance which led directly to Clive and had also the advantage of being less frequented by gangs of sophomores, at that day a terror to freshmen for the first few weeks of term.

Download or read book How to Drink written by Vincent Obsopoeus and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-04-14 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A spirited new translation of a forgotten classic, shot through with timeless wisdom Is there an art to drinking alcohol? Can drinking ever be a virtue? The Renaissance humanist and neoclassical poet Vincent Obsopoeus (ca. 1498–1539) thought so. In the winelands of sixteenth-century Germany, he witnessed the birth of a poisonous new culture of bingeing, hazing, peer pressure, and competitive drinking. Alarmed, and inspired by the Roman poet Ovid's Art of Love, he wrote The Art of Drinking (De Arte Bibendi) (1536), a how-to manual for drinking with pleasure and discrimination. In How to Drink, Michael Fontaine offers the first proper English translation of Obsopoeus's text, rendering his poetry into spirited, contemporary prose and uncorking a forgotten classic that will appeal to drinkers of all kinds and (legal) ages. Arguing that moderation, not abstinence, is the key to lasting sobriety, and that drinking can be a virtue if it is done with rules and limits, Obsopoeus teaches us how to manage our drinking, how to win friends at social gatherings, and how to give a proper toast. But he also says that drinking to excess on occasion is okay—and he even tells us how to win drinking games, citing extensive personal experience. Complete with the original Latin on facing pages, this sparkling work is as intoxicating today as when it was first published.

Its graduates were to be found in all walks of honorable life at home and some of them abroad. Its curriculum possessed the great essential studies of a sound education, - languages, mathematics and philosophy. If there were gaps in its curriculum, according to pres ent-day standards, they were not peculiar to Princeton. They were to be found in the courses of study in other colleges; they were due to the state of education at that time in the country.
