Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Adult Education: In Which Is Comprised a Full and Complete History of the Mechanics' and Literary Institutions, Athenaeums, Philosophical, Mental and Christian Improvement Societies, Literary Unions, Schools of Design, Etc., Of Great Britain, Ireland, America, Etc., Etc Notwithstanding the gratifying reports of moral progress, which indicate the advent of an age of great intellectual improvement, we should fail in our duty, did we not point out the corrective and portentous signs of the times, with reference to the early literary associations. Those Institutions which have adhered to the views of the last half century, are exhausting their capital, and are decaying, the Philosophical Societies are imbecile, and the Mechanics' Institutions which have changed their objects in straining for popularity, by concerts, and ventriloquial entertainments, are involving themselves in debt, or they are rushing (as in Lancashire) into the other extreme of becoming mere day-schools for boys, instead of intellectual seminaries for men. The Athenaeums have been paying a heavy penalty for their club and dining prin ciples, and they are wisely repressing these features, and retaining their kitchens as separate establishments, at rentals. The indications we have enumerated are evidences of a healthy reaction. If the popularity of lectures in some districts has greatly declined, the Casinos which attracted the multitude, are equally failing, and the present moment should be taken to provide the wavering folk with the means of pleasingly improving themselves.

Download or read book Reign of the Beast written by Adrian Desmond and published by Open Book Publishers. This book was released on 2024-05-08 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1830s, decades before Darwin published the Origin of Species, a museum of evolution flourished in London. Reign of the Beast pieces together the extraordinary story of this lost working-man's institution and its enigmatic owner, the wine merchant W. D. Saull. A financial backer of the anti-clerical Richard Carlile, the ‘Devil's Chaplain’ Robert Taylor, and socialist Robert Owen, Saull outraged polite society by putting humanity’s ape ancestry on display. He weaponized his museum fossils and empowered artisans with a knowledge of deep geological time that undermined the Creationist base of the Anglican state. His geology museum, called the biggest in Britain, housed over 20,000 fossils, including famous dinosaurs. Saull was indicted for blasphemy and reviled during his lifetime. After his death in 1855, his museum was demolished and he was expunged from the collective memory. Now multi-award-winning author Adrian Desmond undertakes a thorough reading of Home Office spy reports and subversive street prints to re-establish Saull's pivotal place at the intersection of the history of geology, atheism, socialism, and working-class radicalism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1851 edition. Excerpt: ...of volumes in 1850 is returned as eight thousand one hundred and fifty. Classes were established soon after the formation of the Association for the study of natural philosophy, and a fine collection of working models and apparatus obtained. Silver medals for ingenious machines and for improvements in others as well as for essays on literary subjects were awarded, but the inducements held out were frequently of little avail. Several members of the Institution have recently formed a society for the promotion of the arts and sciences, and to this society has been committed the charge of the apparatus belonging to the Institution, to be arranged and put in proper order. The society numbers thirty members. At several of the meetings papers have been read, and specimens of arts and manufactures exhibited. During the year 1849 the historical class has been attended with spirit: five essays were received from competitors for the prize for the best essay on "The advantages of the study of English history." This class appears to be an improvement upon the usual essay and discussion societies, and presents a sufficiently extended field of debate in the consideration of the most important civil and religious transactions recorded in the national annals and contemporaneous events of Europe, to be valuable and entertaining, as well as to impart a taste for historic information. Lectures and concerts were admitted, in 1835, to have been a failure, and it was deemed imprudent to enter into further engagements of this nature. Exhibitions, railway excursions, and soirees, have been remunerative as well as attractive, but it was not until 1847 that any great energy was displayed in the management. In that year newspapers were admitted into the...
