Excerpt from Three Historical Educators, Pestalozzi, Fröbel, Herbart: A Lecture, Delivered at Torquay, February 17th, 1905, the Mayor of the Borough in the Chair
Rousseau to study child nature instead of forcing it along lines only suitable for mature beings; to take the child into woods and valleys instead of introducing it, at too early a stage, to letters and books. Things before words, Concrete before abstract - these famous maxims, so prominent in Pestalozzi's later system of doctrine, were, to all intents and purposes, learnt by him from Rousseau. If any one desires in brief form a summary of the work of Rousseau at its best it may be found in the wise maxim, Don't expect an old head to stand on young shoulders.
