The Scholemaster is a book written by Roger Ascham in the 16th century. It is divided into two books, with Book I being the focus of this description. The book is a treatise on education, written in the form of a dialogue between Ascham and his student, John. The book is written in English, rather than Latin, which was the language of education at the time. Ascham argues that education should be practical rather than theoretical, and that students should be taught through experience rather than just memorization. He also emphasizes the importance of a well-rounded education, including the study of literature, history, and mathematics. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the importance of good manners, the role of the teacher, the value of languages, and the benefits of physical exercise. Ascham also provides advice on how to study effectively, including the use of mnemonic devices and the importance of regular practice. Overall, The Scholemaster is a seminal work in the history of education. It emphasizes the importance of a practical, well-rounded education and provides practical advice for both teachers and students.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
