Sumario: | John Locke is widely regarded as one of the most influential of the Enlightenment philosophers. This volume, edited by J.W. Adamson & published as a second edition in 1922, contains two of John Locke's essays concerning education; Some Thoughts Concerning Education & Of the Conduct of the Understanding. Some Thoughts Concerning Education expands on Locke's pioneering theory of mind by explaining how to educate a child using three complementary methods: the development of a healthy body; the formation of a virtuous mind; & the pursuit of an academic curriculum including the emerging sciences, mathematics & languages. Of the Conduct of the Understanding continues the theme of the earlier essay by describing how to develop rational thought. For over a century after the publication of these essays, John Locke's views on education were considered authoritative. |
