Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Character Building: A Master's Talks With His Pupils Archibald Watson. And unto God the things that are God's. Dr. Dix. Well put, my lad, well put. An excellent application of a famous epigram. The past hour justly belonged to the author of the Commentaries, and we have given it to Marcus Aurelius Antoninus. It is nearly time for the bell, but I will mention to you a plan which I have been thinking of, and which I shall probably adopt: There are many things I wish to say to you not directly connected with your lessons. To avoid in future the mistake I have made today, it is my intention to set apart ten or fifteen minutes every Wednesday morning, not for set lessons, but for miscellaneous Talks. The time thus appropriated will be taken equitably from the various branches of study, and no one of them need to suffer perceptibly. But whether they suffer or not, I shall feel that I am doing no wrong; and certainly no one can doubt the impor tance of questions of conduct and motive in a school which professes to form character as well as to train the intellect. If I should adopt this plan, I cordially invite you all to join freely with me in the discussions, to suggest topics, to ask questions, and to feel no hesitation whatever in ex pressing dissent from anything that may be said, - hon est dissent I mean, of course. I hope no one will ever take part in a discussion simply to carry his point and win a victory, or merely to make a display of his skill at logical fencing. The one great object I wish every one to have before him is to discover and point out the truth. [bell. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Development of Character: A Practical Creed The following brief chapters were written in the belief, that the cardinal principles upon which a good character is based are susceptible of absolute demon stration; and the attempt has been made to present these demonstrations as nearly as possible in the terse, direct manner in which a geometrical proposition is proved, without any effort toward oratory or epigram.

Download or read book Building Character written by Charles L. Davis II and published by University of Pittsburgh Press. This book was released on 2019-09-06 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the nineteenth-century paradigm of architectural organicism, the notion that buildings possessed character provided architects with a lens for relating the buildings they designed to the populations they served. Advances in scientific race theory enabled designers to think of “race” and “style” as manifestations of natural law: just as biological processes seemed to inherently regulate the racial characters that made humans a perfect fit for their geographical contexts, architectural characters became a rational product of design. Parallels between racial and architectural characters provided a rationalist model of design that fashioned some of the most influential national building styles of the past, from the pioneering concepts of French structural rationalism and German tectonic theory to the nationalist associations of the Chicago Style, the Prairie Style, and the International Style. In Building Character, Charles Davis traces the racial charge of the architectural writings of five modern theorists—Eugene Emmanuel Viollet-le-Duc, Gottfried Semper, Louis Sullivan, Frank Lloyd Wright, and William Lescaze—to highlight the social, political, and historical significance of the spatial, structural, and ornamental elements of modern architectural styles.
