Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A statue of Horace Mann, erected in front of the Boston State House in 1863, declares him the "Father of the American Public School System." For over a century and a half, most narratives about early American education have taken this epithet as the truth. As Mann looms over the Boston Common, so he has also loomed over discussions of early American schooling. Other scholarship has emphasized economic factors as the main reason for the emergence of public schools. The Common School Awakening offers a new narrative about the rise of public schools in America that counters these conceptions. In this book, David Komline explains how a broad and distinctly American religious consensus emerged in the first half of the nineteenth century, allowing people from across the religious spectrum to cooperate in systematizing and professionalizing America's schools in an effort to Christianize the country. At the height of this movement, several states introduced state-sponsored teacher training colleges and concentrated government oversight of schools in offices such as the one held by Mann. Shortly thereafter, the religious consensus that had served as the foundation for this common school system disintegrated. But the system itself remained, the legacy of not just one man, but of a whole network of reformers who put into motion a transatlantic and transdenominational religious movement - the "Common School Awakening."

Download or read book Lowell Mason the Father of Singing Among the Children written by Arthur Lowndes Rich and published by Chapel Hill : The University of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 1946 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A capacity for music is much more common than is generally supposed"; "some degree of cultivation is necessary to enable us to enter into the spirit of singing"; "children must be taught music as they are taught to read"; "the practice of music might be pursued in such a manner as to afford relief from other studies and be a pleasant and agreeable employment". These were radical ideas in 1826, the year Lowell Mason delivered his Address on Church Music, for in those days, as Mason observed twenty-five years later, "children did not generally sing, nor was it supposed to be possible to teach them." Settling in Boston in 1827, Mason organized the first children's singing school -- a voluntary class which at first consisted of no more than six or eight, but which increased eventually to five or six hundred. In 1833, inspired by the public performances of these singing children, a group of Bostonians organized the Boston Academy of Music, a society which sustained Mason's work among the children until music was introduced into the schools of the city. In this book, based upon an exhaustive study of primary sources, Dr. Rich gives a full account of Mason's career as a church musician, chorus master, and pioneer in training teachers of public school music; of his struggles for self-education and his failures and successes as a practicing musician, teacher, and publisher. It stresses the educational aspects of his career, his methods, his theories on music teaching for school children, and his interrelationships with such educators as Rousseau, Pestalozzi, Barnard, and Horace Mann. A valuable feature of this study is the bibliography, which contains a complete catalog of Mason's writings and publications with a list of their numerous editions and the names of collections and libraries where copies are available. - Jacket flap.
