Ancient Education And Its Meaning To Us: Our Debt To Greece And Rome by John Frederic Dobson is a comprehensive exploration of the educational systems of ancient Greece and Rome and their lasting impact on modern education. The author delves into the philosophical and cultural underpinnings of ancient education, examining the role of teachers, students, and the curriculum in shaping the intellectual and moral character of individuals and societies.Dobson argues that the ancient Greeks and Romans were pioneers in the development of education as a means of cultivating the mind and character of individuals, and that their ideas and practices continue to influence modern educational systems. He discusses the importance of classical languages and literature, mathematics, philosophy, and physical education in ancient education, and shows how these subjects continue to be relevant today.The book also examines the social and political context of ancient education, including the role of education in maintaining social order and promoting citizenship. Dobson highlights the ways in which ancient education was shaped by the values and beliefs of the societies in which it was practiced, and how these values and beliefs continue to shape modern education.Overall, Ancient Education And Its Meaning To Us: Our Debt To Greece And Rome is a fascinating and insightful exploration of the history and legacy of ancient education, and its ongoing relevance to modern education. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of education, classical studies, or the philosophy of education.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
