This book was released on 2015-07-15 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Claims of Classical Learning Examined and Refuted by Argument, and by the Confessions of Scholars In the all important concerns of education, the prevailing scheme of study, both here and in Europe, appears to involve a species and a degree of inconsistency wholly unaccountable. During the 16th and 17th centuries, while Grecian philosophy was in vogue, the reign of error was indeed, beyond measure, more extensive; but it was more consistent - Principle and practice went together - The dogmas of Aristotle passing then for the first principles of science, the empire of authority was universal; and mental subjugation, as it was unfelt, was unsuspected. The attention then paid to ancient language, as the natural avenue to ancient wisdom, was but a part of the general delusion and harmonized with it. In the system as a whole, however erroneous, there was a congruity and a fitness well calculated both to dazzle and deceive; and it did deceive for many a generation. But what is the state of things in our day? - Ancient philosophy is altogether exploded. In no one department of science, physical or metaphysical, political or moral, are the ancients looked up to as suitable guides. Their principles, it is true, were not invariable wrong, and their doctrines often were accidentally right; but their general theories, on all subjects, have long been renounced by common consent, as being either visionary, or inadequate, or ill adapted to the state of the world as we now find it. Nor is this any disparagement to those who were called to think and act at earlier periods. When the progress of knowledge is recorded, though but imperfectly, each generation begins its career with better helps - it takes its departure from a more advanced point - and as this process has been going on ever since the art of writing was first invented, more especially since the art of printing, the present race of men must possess by many degrees a larger fund of intelligence than their remote ancestors, though nowise superior perhaps by nature. To travel over the ground of ancient learning does really seem then like going over our alphabet at the age of manhood.
