Download or read book Education of Girls and Women in Great Britain Classic Reprint written by Christina Sinclair Bremner and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-18 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Education of Girls and Women in Great Britain IN tracing the history of any movement, the rate of development at different periods varies strikingly. There may be no growth for a long time occasionally the tide of progress may appear even to flow back; the spirit of a great reform dies out, and the customs and traditions which have grown up around that reform become a dead weight to hamper progress. Then faint signs of life are to be seen by those who are on the watch, half hearted protests against traditions, here and there revolts quickly quelled, and some discontent. These are promises of future life and vigour. Suddenly the scene is changed, or rather, it appears to be sudden to the casual observer; it is but the ending of a series of events to those who have watched carefully. We have an outburst of Utopian schemes, many brave beginnings, and many failures. All seems chaos for the time being; currents cross and re-cross the eternal struggle between the conservative element and the progressive element in humanity is intensified. Gradually out of disorder comes order and rest. But the world is not as it was: the trend of progress is altered; new forces have probably come into Operation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Before Vassar Opened: A Contribution to the History of the Higher, Education of Women in America The movement for the higher education of wo men was so slow in enlisting the interest of the country that it is perhaps not surprising that no full history of it exists. For it was not only slow, but obscure, and came to large recogni tion only after the war, when a great gift con stituted a college that could attract the atten tion of a people absorbed in other and more pressing interests. Since that time our interest has been focused on progress and results, rather than on origins, and history has been subordinated to prophecy. The details of the earlier record, moreover, must be sought in a scattered literature of small interest to any but special students, in catalogues, in government reports, in old newspapers, and in occasional histories of individual institutions and in bio graphies of leaders of more or less distinction. But we cannot continue content with the pres ent or with our hopes, and must ask what early steps preceded what has seemed to most the sudden bursting of a new idea in the his tory of man. That Vassar's opening marked an epoch there can be no question, and the so cial and economic conditions that followed the Civil War responded immediately to the new opportunity; but the results could not have been so immediate and. So encouraging had it not been for the efforts of many pioneers in the North and in the South. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Studies in Higher Education in England and Scotland

Download or read book Studies in Higher Education in England and Scotland written by George Edwin Maclean and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-12-24 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in Higher Education in England and Scotland: With Suggestions for Universities and Colleges in the United States The oneness of the New World with the Old is found in the par allel story of the planting of American colleges along the Atlantic seaboard and by the western pioneers on the prairies and beyond the Rockies. Indeed, the similarities between the British and Ameri can institutions grow upon one who studies them. Knowing the de scent of the American from the English college, one is prepared for the family likeness, and recognizes that the differences are largely superficial. Both are at work upon the same great problems. Each may learn from the other. The British commissions and delegations of teachers have not been slow in recent times to visit America and to profit by American educational experiments. The subject of this bulletin has an immediate practical as well as a theoretical interest, in view of the considerable and increasing num ber of American students in the United Kingdom, in addition to the nearly 100 Rhodes scholars from the United States in residence at Oxford. A better understanding of the higher education of the two countries will cement the bond of common anglo-saxon institutions, language, literature, and international obligations. The institutions in England and Scotland fall into eight groups, consisting of four types of universities and four kinds of colleges. They are, in the approximate order of their evolution: I. Oxford and Cambridge, with Durham as a modern variation. II. The Scotch universities, St. Andrews, Glasgow, Aberdeen, Edinburgh. III. London. IV. The new or provincial universities at Manchester (victoria), Birmingham, Liverpool, Leeds, Sheffield, and Bristol. V. The independent university colleges at Exeter, Nottingham, Reading, and Southampton. VI. Technical colleges and schools. VII. Agricultural colleges and schools. VIII. Women's colleges. The older groups have been the direct or indirect progenitors of the younger. Over and above formal affiliations, all the groups are more closely interrelated than the public are aware Of, by the pres ence on their faculties of the graduates of the different institutions, by joint examining boards, and by common representatives on their governing boards. On the other hand each institution of the same type has the most distinct individuality. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
