Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Lecture on the Classical Learning, Delivered Before the Convention of Teachers, and Other Friends of Education, Assembled to Form the American Institute of Instruction, August, 20, 1830 IN discussing the claims of classical learning, it is not my intention to revive the half-forgotten disputes in which the scholars of old arrayed themselves in contending parties, uh der the 'banners of ancient and of modern genius. The spirit which animated those violent times, is foreign from an occa sion like the present. The fanaticism which taught men to abuse and scorn each other for differences in literary opinion, and woman, in the person of a fair votary of the Muses, the ou ly one of her sex whom the French Academy has ever deign ed to eulogiz'e, 'to fix upon her opponent, Lamothe, because he ridiculed Homer's mythology, the gentle epithets 'cold, fiat, ridiculous, impertinent, grossly ignorant, prodd and senseless, ' and to remind him that Alcibiades boxed the ears of a rhetori' cian, because he had not Homer's works; this absurd fanati cism, it is far from my purpose to evoke. Yet it might well be matter of surprise, that the great masters of antiquity, whose works have stood the test of two thousand years, should, at this late day, be summoned before the tribunal of public opin ion, their merits closely scrutinized, questioned, doubted, and.

Book The Culture of Classicism

Download or read book The Culture of Classicism written by Caroline Winterer and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2004-04-09 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the New Scholars Book Award from the American Educational Research Association Debates continue to rage over whether American university students should be required to master a common core of knowledge. In The Culture of Classicism: Ancient Greece and Rome in American Intellectual Life, 1780–1910, Caroline Winterer traces the emergence of the classical model that became standard in the American curriculum in the nineteenth century and now lies at the core of contemporary controversies. By closely examining university curricula and the writings of classical scholars, Winterer demonstrates how classics was transformed from a narrow, language-based subject to a broader study of civilization, persuasively arguing that we cannot understand both the rise of the American university and modern notions of selfhood and knowledge without an appreciation for the role of classicism in their creation.
