Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Brief Sketch of Some of the Principal Universities of Europe and of the United States As the Literary Institutions of Germany are, perhaps, more interesting to the American student than those of any other country - on account of their distinguished reputation and the peculiarities of their organization, we shall commence with a description of them. The German Universities consist invariably of four distinct faculties, Theology, Medicine, Law and Philosophy. It will be perceived at once, therefore, that the arrangement is essentially different from our Colleges and even from our Universities. In fact they are professional schools, and are resorted to, only by young men, who are preparing themselves directly for the active duties of life, and never by boys, as is the case in our Colleges. The schools called Gymnasia, (of which we will give a brief account hereafter) in which preparation is made for the universities, correspond very nearuor exactly, with our colleges. To form a University then, on The German plan, all that is necessary is, to place a Law, a Medical and a Theological Seminary in the same place, and under the same government: unite the libraries and apparatus of each - and add to all a faculty of Languages, Letters and Science. In the faculties of Law, Medicine and Theology, those branches are taught, which have a direct reference to those professions: the faculty of Philosophy comprises every thing not embraced in the other three - Hebrew, Persian, Arabic, Greek, Latin, English, French, Italian and Spanish Literature, History, Mathematics, Mineralogy, Chemistry, Botany, Moral and Intellectual Philosophy, Logic, Rhetoric, Painting, Drawing, Architecture, &c. &c.
