Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from University Education for English Catholics: A Letter to the Very Rev. J. H. Newman, D.D Dear Dr. Newman, Whatever differences of opinion may exist among English Catholics with reference to the other important questions of the day, the greatest unanimity may safely be said to prevail in acknowledging the need now so painfully felt of University education for laymen. There may, indeed, be very opposite opinions as to what is exactly meant, or ought to be meant, by University education. What one man would desire or recommend might be loudly condemned by another. All would, however, I am sure, agree in admitting that some organized system of education is needed, not only beyond what is actually given by our colleges and seminaries, but different in kind from anything which lies within the province of those colleges and seminaries. A youth is only fit for the University when he has thoroughly done even with such schools as Eton or Rugby; and, on the other hand, those who are the best fitted for teaching in schools may be very ill qualified for University teaching, and vice versa. We have many excellent schools, but no University, and we are thus placed at a disadvantage whether as compared with our Protestant fellow-countrymen or with our fellow Catholics abroad. This need of University education is not felt more strongly than the conviction of its urgency. It is acknowledged to be one of those questions "the solution of which must be promptly made, or it will solve itself by drifting beyond all control."
