The History of Education by Ellwood P. Cubberley is a comprehensive account of the evolution of education from ancient times to the early 20th century. The book covers a wide range of topics including the development of education in different cultures, the role of religion in education, the emergence of modern educational institutions, and the impact of social and political changes on education. Cubberley provides detailed descriptions of educational practices and institutions in different historical periods and regions, from the ancient civilizations of Greece and Rome to medieval Europe, the Renaissance, and the Enlightenment. He also examines the growth of education in the United States, including the establishment of public schools and the development of higher education. The book presents a wealth of information on educational theories, pedagogical methods, and the contributions of key educators throughout history. It also explores the challenges and controversies that have shaped the history of education, such as debates over curriculum, the role of the state in education, and the tension between traditional and progressive approaches to teaching. Overall, The History of Education provides a detailed and engaging account of the evolution of education, making it a valuable resource for students, educators, and anyone interested in the history of learning and teaching.The reading of the school also changed both in character and purpose. In other words, in place of an elementary education based on reading, a little writing and spelling, and the catechism, all of a memoriter type and with religious ends in view, a new primary school, essentially secular in character, was created by the work of Pestalozzi. This new school was based on the study of real objects, learning through sense impressions, the individual expression of ideas, child activity, and the development of the child's powers in an orderly way. In fact, the development of the faculties of the child became a by-word with Pestalozzi and his followers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
