Book description
An Introduction To The History Of Educational Theories – is a work published in 1882 and written by Oscar Browning.
He was a British educationalist, historian and a well-known Cambridge personality during the late Victorian and Edwardian eras.
The history of Educational theories can be useful to teachers in two ways: it can show what the historical basis is for maintaining existing practices in education or replacing others; and also it can, by telling us what the great teachers have tried to do and what great thinkers thought possible in this department, stimulate us to complete their work or to implement their principles in easier conditions.
The dead hand of spiritual ancestors imposes on descendant no more sacred duty than the obligation to implement in happier circumstances ideas that, due to age-related stress or the shortness of life, have lost their realization.
The author has attempted to provide both a popular and accurate account of the main lines of thought followed in educational subjects as they are important at the present time.
The author was also aware of many omissions and shortcomings in carrying out his task.
His main qualification was that he had been a working teacher for fifteen years.
This work contains: Education among the Greeks; Roman Education; Humanistic Education; The Realists; The Naturalists; English Humanists and Realists; Locke; Jesuits and Jansenists; Rousseau; Pestalozzi; Kant, Fichte, and Herbart; The English Public School.
