Synopsis
Excerpt from The Secret of Herbart: An Essay on Education and a Reply to Professor James of Harvard
The public - whose favourable reception of several recent works by the present writer has moved his grateful. Thanks - deserve an apology for the appearance of a new book on the old subject. There is nothing here that is positively fresh, nothing that cannot be inferred by any one who chooses to think out the implications of the apper ception doctrine. Neither does the work contri bute to the department of methodology; the writer feels that others, with more varied experience and more opportunities for observation than have fallen to his lot, can speak with far greater authority than he upon matters of that kind; and, indeed, with two such Herbartians as Professors Adams and Findlay at work upon questions of methodo logy, there is no need to anticipate any neglect of this department. He has therefore abandoned for the time the task of presenting a system of Herbartian doctrine, and has preferred rather to expound the one or two central thoughts which constitute its essence, and seem so vitally needed by the education of to-day; thoughts which have a closer bearing upon the character and the destiny. Of the nation than any other thoughts that he can expound.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the ideas put forward by Johann Friedrich Herbart, a renowned philosopher and educational reformer of the 19th century.
