The Scholemaster is a book written by the English scholar and writer, Roger Ascham, in the 16th century. It is a treatise on education and is considered one of the most important works on the subject from that period. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part discussing the role of the teacher and the second part focusing on the curriculum.Ascham argues that the teacher should be a good role model for students and should have a deep understanding of the subject they are teaching. He also emphasizes the importance of discipline and the need for students to develop good study habits. In the second part of the book, Ascham outlines a curriculum that includes the study of Latin, Greek, and other classical languages, as well as history and literature.The Scholemaster was written during a time when education was undergoing significant changes in England. Ascham was a strong advocate for a humanistic approach to education, which emphasized the study of classical texts and the development of critical thinking skills. His book had a significant influence on education in England and was widely read and discussed by educators and scholars of the time.Overall, The Scholemaster is a seminal work on education that provides valuable insights into the role of the teacher and the importance of a well-rounded curriculum. It remains a relevant and thought-provoking book for educators and students today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
