Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Study of the Higher Life of Chicago: A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Literature in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Department or Sociology) This book is the result of a study of the cultural interests of Chicago. The commercial, industrial, and sanitary conditions of the city are assumed as given, and as forming the baas of the educational, social, moral, æsthetic, and religious life of the community. A discussion of all the agencies that make for the better life of Chicago has been impossible, but it is believed that those found in the following pages are representative and fairly inclusive. Special attention is called to the tables on Women´s Clubs, Social Settlements; and Charities, found in the Appendix. It is hoped that these may be of use for social and philanthropic workers, and form a basis for a complete directory of these institutions. It is the author´s hope also that this conspectus will give an intelligent view of Chicago´s endowment of culture, and furnish great cause for encouragement to all its public-spirited citizens. The book is submitted also as a suggested plan for studying the higher life of a great city. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
