Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Inaugural Address, Delivered in Carlisle, September 10, 1834, Upon the Re-Opening of Dickinson College In obedience to an ancient and respectable custom, I avail myself of the present appropriate occasion lo make a few remarks upon the general question of education, and the particular condition and prospects of this Institution. If it were possible to separate the prosperity of religion from the influences of education, there can be no doubt but that education would be the second great interest of mankind, as Christianity is the first. But as such a separation, from the very nature of the case, cannot be effected, the value of education is enhanced in proportion as it advances enlightened, experimental, and practical piety. Education, therefore, which has not due respect to our moral powers and religious obligations, should never be considered or attempted. Yet it need not be regarded as wholly or mainly applicable lo these objects. The extent of its application in this case, is to be determined by the necessary connection which exists between it, and public and private morals and religion. The main design of a liberal education is, to develope, enlarge, strengthen, and discipline the intellect. But in conducting this interesting process, due respect must be had to the connection between the mind and the body, and the influence of the operations of the former upon the health and passions of the latter.
