Book excerpt: Excerpt from Famous Men of Ancient Times The reader of these pages will perhaps remark, that the length of the following sketches is hardly proportioned to the relative importance of the several subjects, regarded in a merely historical point of view. In explanation of this fact, the author begs leave to say, that, while he intended to present a series of the great beacon lights that shine along the shores of the past, and thus throw a continuous gleam over the dusky sea of ancient history, - he had still other Views. His chief aim is moral culture and the several articles have been abridged or extended, as this control ling purpose might be subserved.

Download or read book Famous Men of Greece Classic Reprint written by John H. Haaren and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-03 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Famous Men of Greece The famous men of ancient and modern times are the mountain peaks of history. It is logical then that the study of history should begin with the biographies of these men. Not only is it logical it is also pedagogical. Experience has proven that in order to attract and hold the child's attention each conspicuous feature of history presented to him should have an individual for its center. The child identifies himself with the personage presented. It is not Romulus or Hercules or Caesar or Alexander that the child has in mind when he reads, but himself, acting under similar conditions. Prominent educators, appreciating these truths, have long recognized the value of biography as a preparation for the study of history and have given it an important place in their scheme of studies.
