Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Passages in a Wandering Life An old controversy, and one that, I suppose, will never be decided, relates to the comparative wisdom or unwisdom of a father´s determining the future career of his son, and bringing him up under the persuasion that he must reconcile himself to that and think of no other; or, on the contrary, leaving him free to make his own choice, down to the very close of the years of education and preparation. My father, Dr. Arnold of Rugby, so far as his judgment may be inferred from his conduct in the case of his two elder sons, - his other sons were too young at the time of his death for the question to have arisen as to them, - was of the latter opinion. He must have seen how strong was the bent of my eldest brother´s mind towards poetry, and literary composition in general; and to the best of my belief he never thought of prescribing to him in any way either the field within which, or the aims towards which, he should set his genius to work.
