Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from In Defence of What Might Be In the summer of 1911 I brought out a study of education in general and elementary education in particular, to which I gave the name of What Is and What Might Be. The book attracted a certain amount of attention; and, in spite of being outspoken in tone and revolutionary in spirit, it was on the whole not unfavourably received either by the Press or the public. But some of the criticisms passed on it convinced me that on certain important points I had failed to make my meaning clear; and as misunderstanding on those points is necessarily fatal to an intelligent understanding of the book as a whole, I have thought it well to consider the more vital of the objections raised by my critics, in the hope of being able to give, in response to the stimulus of criticism, a fuller, deeper, and more illuminating interpretation of my main ideas than I had succeeded in doing when I wrote my book. I desire to thank Mr. G. R. S. Mead, the editor of the Quest, for permission to reprint so much of Chapter III as appeared in a recent number of his Magazine; to Mr. and Mrs. Henry Felkin, the translators of Herbart´s Science of Education, and to Messrs. George Routledge and Sons, their publishers, for permission to print the extracts from that work which appear in Appendix I.; and to Mr. H. Fielding-Hall for permission to print certain passages from his book, The Passing of Empire. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
