History of this Book.--Some wise man has advised us never to find fault with ourselves, for, says he, you may always depend on your friends to do it for you. So, having looked through the proofs of this book, I abstain from fault-finding. I fancy I could find fault more effectively than my friends or even my professional critics. As the Spectator's "Correspondent in an easy chair" says very truly, the author has read his book many times; the critic has read it at most once. In fact the critic gives to the book (in some cases to the subject of the book also) no greater number of hours than the author has given months, perhaps years. Partiality blinds the author, no doubt, but unless he is a fatuous person it does not blind him so much as his haste blinds the critic An author of note said of a book of his, which had been much criticised: "The book has faults, but I am the only person who has discovered them," to which a friend maliciously appended: "For faults read merits." Whatever was the truth here, I am inclined to think the author has the best chance of putting his finger on the weak places. But if I see weaknesses in the foregoing book, why do I not make it better? Just for two reasons: to improve the book I should have to spend more time on it and more money. The more I read and think about any one of my subjects, the more I want to go on reading and thinking. Perhaps I hear of an old book that has escaped my notice, or a new book comes out, sometimes an important book like Pinloche's Basedow. So I can never finish an essay to my satisfaction, and the only way of getting it off my hands is to send the copy to the printer. By the time the proof comes in there is something that I should like to add or alter; but then the...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays on Educational Reformers: Only Authorized Ed, of the Work as Rewritten in 1890 "It is clear that in whatever it is our duty to act, those matters also it is our duty to study." These words of Dr. Arnold's seem to me incontrovertible. So a sense of duty, as well as fondness for the subject, has led me to devote a period of leisure to the study of Education, in the practice of which I have been for some years engaged. There are countries where it would be considered, truism that a teacher in order to exercise his profession intelligently should know something about the chief authorities in it. Here, however, I suppose such an assertion will seem paradoxical; but there is a good deal to be said in defense of it. DeQuincey has pointed out that a man who takes up any pursuit without knowing what advances others have made in it, works at a great disadvantage. He does not apply his strength in the right direction, he troubles himself about small matters and neglects great, he falls into errors that have long since been exploded. An educator is, I think, liable to these dangers if he brings to his task no knowledge but that which he learnt for the tripos, and no skill but that which he acquired in the cricket-ground or on the river.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Educational Reform: Essays and Addresses The papers contained in this volume have been selected from a much larger number on the ground that they set forth with clearness and sufficient amplitude the various educational reforms I have been trying to promote during the past thirty years. They are arranged chronologically. Most of them were lectures or addresses delivered at public meetings, some having been read from manuscript, and others having been prepared after the original delivery by revising shorthand reports. The speeches will be easily recognized by their style. No changes have been made in these papers, except a few insignificant corrections affecting the form but not the sense. When such phrases occur as "ten years ago" or "during the past twenty years," the time is always to be understood as reckoned from the date of the paper. Inasmuch as I have been urging similar principles or measures of reform at various stages oi education, there is necessarily some repetition oi doctrines and arguments in the series of addresses.

Download or read book Essays on Educational Reformers 2 Vols Set written by Robert H. Quick and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of education, much as it has been hitherto neglected, especially in England, must have a great future before it. If we ignore the Past we can not understand the Present, or forecast the Future. In this book I am going to speak of Reformers or Innovators who aimed at changing what was handed down to them; but the Redical can no more escape from the Past, Than the Conservative can stereotype it. It acts not by attraction only, but no less by repulsion. There have been thinkers in later times who have announced themselves as the executioners of the Past and laboured to destroy all it has bequeathed to us.
