Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Print on Demand. This book traces the development of education as a privilege reserved for the elite to its gradual extension to all classes. The author begins by examining the Greek conception of education as a means of training the rational faculties for leadership and leisure, a model adopted and expanded upon by the Romans. In both societies, education was largely conned to the upper classes, with women and the poor having few opportunities for formal learning. The book then explores the influence of the Early Christian and Medieval periods, when education became closely tied to religious instruction. The role of the Church in establishing schools and preserving classical knowledge is discussed, as is the rise of chivalry and its impact on the education of women. The author also examines the tension between the desire to extend educational opportunities and the persistence of class-based distinctions. The nal section of the book focuses on the Renaissance and Reformation, a time of renewed interest in classical learning and the rise of humanism. The author analyzes the revival of the liberal arts as a means of shaping the ideal citizen and the emergence of new educational institutions, such as grammar schools and universities. The book concludes by emphasizing the gradual but incomplete extension of educational privilege during this period, setting the stage for ongoing debates about the role of education in society. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
