Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Principles of Secondary Education, Vol. 3: A Text-Book Something precious to education was lost when the Greek idea of the ethical goodness of wisdom became obscured by neglect. It is one of the principal purposes of this volume to bring into clearer light the moral functions of knowledge, and to show how over the bridge of ethical interest youth may be led from understanding to wisdom, and from wisdom to its correlative goodness and volitional efficiency. Another purpose is to make clear the great existing differences in ideals and conditions between the ancient static and socialistic organizations under an economy of deficit and pain, with their resultants of struggle and sacrifice, and the modern dynamic and democratic order under an economy of surplus and satisfaction, with their resultants of personal independence and cooperative well-being. We live in a world of new conditions, and the ethical training we give must reflect these conditions through new interpretations of old ideals. As has been said, we shall need an annual supplement to the decalogue, unless we fit our old conceptions to the new situation. Old vices and old offences against the social order are still with us, but they are not always adequately recognized and opposed, because they assume the forms of public service.
