Book excerpt: John Henry Newman's lengthy thesis upon educational theory and the teaching of theology and spiritual insight is insightful, forward-looking and informed by the author's extensive experience. Although his career was as a priest and theologian primarily concerned with religious education, John Henry Newman was also an academic with experience working and tutoring in universities. Through his experiences both as an educator and a representative of God, he felt the need to compose a manual in which his opinions on higher education were organized and presented in a single book. Newman sets out a comprehensive thesis of what he believes should comprise a university education, split into two parts: Part One combines Newman's philosophy on education and the acquiring of knowledge with how he believed teaching should proceed. Writing from a theological perspective, he is wary of how theology should impact the remainder of the teaching program, and vice versa. How pure knowledge and facts ought to be viewed in comparison to Christianity and the religious texts therein is also discussed. Part Two concerns the subjects to be taught in university classes. A chapter is devoted to each subject - be it Literature, the Physical Sciences, Catholic Literature and Preaching - while discusses how education should proceed to best profit the student and institution. Although somewhat archaic in the modern day, The Idea of a University in Nine Discourses sheds insight upon how the universities of the mid-19th century were run. Many universities in the United Kingdom at the time could trace their roots to the monastic and religious traditions of scholarship which appeared in the Late Middle Ages and Renaissance. Many famous academics and scientists, such as Isaac Newton, were also religious. At the time Newman wrote this book, higher education was available to only a privileged and gifted few in society, and there were competing theories behind how exactly such education should be furnished upon students. Newman was an influential figure in his time, and it is likely his ideas on education had some influence over Oxford, Cambridge and his home university of Birmingham. Appointed as a Catholic Cardinal, and a frequent visitor and speaker in universities around the country, this book may be considered as Newman's supplement to his more studious works on the subject of Biblical theology and the history of the Christian church.

Book excerpt: Throughout his career, John Henry Newman (1801-1890) remained a committed believer in the value of education.

Book excerpt: When men of great intellect, who have long and intently and exclusively given themselves to the study or investigation of some one particular branch of secular knowledge, whose mental life is concentrated and hidden in their chosen pursuit, and who have neither eyes nor ears for any thing which does not immediately bear upon it, when such men are at length made to realize that there is a clamour all around them, which must be heard, for what they have been so little accustomed to place in the category of knowledge as Religion, and that they themselves are accused of disaffection to it, they are impatient at the interruption; they call the demand tyrannical, and the requisitionists bigots or fanatics. They are tempted to say, that their only wish is to be let alone; for themselves, they are not dreaming of offending any one, or interfering with any one; they are pursuing their own particular line, they have never spoken a word against any one's religion, whoever he may be, and never mean to do so. It does not follow that they deny the existence of a God, because they are not found talking of it, when the topic would be utterly irrelevant. All they say is, that there are other beings in the world besides the Supreme Being; their business is with them. After all, the creation is not the Creator, nor things secular religious. Theology and human science are two things, not one, and have their respective provinces, contiguous it may be and cognate to each other, but not identical. When we are contemplating earth, we are not contemplating heaven; and when we are contemplating heaven, we are not contemplating earth. Separate subjects should be treated separately. As division of labour, so division of thought is the only means of successful application. “Let us go our own way,” they say, “and you go yours. We do not pretend to lecture on Theology, and you have no claim to pronounce upon Science.” With this feeling they attempt a sort of compromise, between their opponents who claim for Theology a free introduction into the Schools of Science, and themselves who would exclude it altogether, and it is this: viz., that it should remain indeed excluded from the public schools, but that it should be permitted in private, wherever a sufficient number of persons is found to desire it. Such persons, they seem to say, may have it all their own way, when they are by themselves, so that they do not attempt to disturb a comprehensive system of instruction, acceptable and useful to all, by the intrusion of opinions peculiar to their own minds.
