Only one hour is counted from eleven to one, and from three to five, as then only half of the boys are in school-room and work-room. No. V. 27 York Place, December 25th, 1848. My Dear Mr. Guthrie, --The table showing the composition of the Original Ragged Schools is made up of terrible details. It affords subject-matter for the wisest men to ponder, constituting, as it does, an analysis of a sample only of the largest and sorest evil which affiicts the body social of this country. One item, not included in the table, might appear to many to be a strange one. Thirty per cent, of the children ran away from the Ragged Schools, "and came back, or were brought back, and then attended." It may seem strange that they ran away, and this after food had been given to them, clothing had been put upon them, and kind treatment had been exercised towards them. The key to the explanation of the phenomenon is to be found in this: they are callous to what we understand by hardship. They don't know home, neither do they know aught about friendship. From infancy they have catered for themselves.; they are ignorant of what is expressed by the word risk; they are independent; they resist the very gentlest restraint, and their first impulse is to escape from it; they have no love for what they never experienced; and they don't fear that with which they are familiar. Hence the smallest offence to their freer than Arab feelings is cause enough for them to endeavor to escape from school, and resume the more than savage life to which they have been habituated from their earliest infancy. It is very encouraging to know that " running away from school" is daily becoming less frequent; and that of those who run away, the number of instances in which the parents bring...

Download or read book Scotland s Books written by Robert Crawford and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2009-01-30 with total page 848 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Treasure Island to Trainspotting, Scotland's rich literary tradition has influenced writing across centuries and cultures far beyond its borders. Here, for the first time, is a single volume presenting the glories of fifteen centuries of Scottish literature. In Scotland's Books the much loved poet Robert Crawford tells the story of Scottish imaginative writing and its relationship to the country's history. Stretching from the medieval masterpieces of St. Columba's Iona - the earliest surviving Scottish work - to the energetic world of twenty-first-century writing by authors such as Ali Smith and James Kelman, this outstanding account traces the development of literature in Scotland and explores the cultural, linguistic and literary heritage of the nation. It includes extracts from the writing discussed to give a flavor of the original work, and its new research ranges from specially made translations of ancient poems to previously unpublished material from the Scottish Enlightenment and interviews with living writers. Informative and readable, this is the definitive single-volume guide to the marvelous legacy of Scottish literature.

Download or read book Criminal Conversations written by Judith Rowbotham and published by Ohio State University Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The essays in this book set out to explore the ways in which Victorians used newspapers to identify the causes of bad behavior and its impacts, and the ways in which they tried to "distance" criminals and those guilty of "bad" behavior from the ordinary members of society, including identification of them as different according to race of sexual orientation. It also explores how threats from within "normal" society were depicted and the panic that issues like "baby-farming" caused." "Victorian alarm was about crimes and bad behavior which they saw as new or unique to their period - but which were not new then and which, in slightly different dress, are still causing panic today. What is striking about the essays in this collection are the ways in which they echo contemporary concerns about crime and bad behavior, including panics about "new" types of crime. This has implications for modern understandings of how society needs to understand crime, demonstrating that while there are changes over time, there are also important continuities."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
