The Doctrine of Formal Discipline is a book written by Cecil Kenyon Lyans, originally published in 1914. The book explores the concept of formal discipline, which is the idea that certain academic subjects, such as mathematics and Latin, can be used to train the mind and improve overall mental abilities, even if the subject matter itself is not directly applicable in everyday life.Lyans examines the history and development of formal discipline, tracing its roots back to ancient Greece and Rome. He also discusses the psychological theories behind the concept, including the idea that mental processes can be strengthened through exercise and training.The book includes case studies and examples of how formal discipline has been applied in education, as well as critiques of the concept from various perspectives. Lyans argues that formal discipline is a valuable tool for developing critical thinking skills and improving overall cognitive function, but he also acknowledges its limitations and potential drawbacks.Overall, The Doctrine of Formal Discipline provides a comprehensive overview of an important concept in education and psychology, and remains relevant to contemporary discussions about the role of education in developing well-rounded individuals.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
