Sinopsis
Excerpt from Outlines of Educational History
Probably the most comprehensive idea of what correct education should do was expressed by Bishop Temple, who said that, It is the power whereby the present ever gathers into itself the results of the past, and trans forms the human race into a colossal man whose life reaches from the creation to the Day of Judgment. The successive generations of men are days in this man's life The discovery of inventions which characterized the different epochs of the world's history are his works. The creeds and doctrines, the opinions and principles of the successive ages, are his thoughts. The state of so ciety at different times forms his manners. He grows in knowledge, in self-control, in visible size, just as we do, and his education is in the same way, and for the same reason, precisely similar to ours. Pascal expressed the same thought when he said, The entire succession of man through the whole course of ages must be regarded as one man, always living and incessantly learning.
These broad conceptions of educational processes are essentially modern, and the more they take possession of the minds of the people, the more and more will it be realized that education does not consist in following dogmatic courses of study, memorizing little understood statements, or mastering set tasks, but rather the joyous and free exercise of all the human powers in the search for truth.

Excerpt from Outlines of Educational History
Definition. - Educatio, the Latin word from which our word education is derived, is used by Cicero to represent the earth as the educator and nourisher of all things. Tacitus uses educare to mean the nursing of infancy, but he limits the use of educatio to training. Quintilian, the ablest educational author among the Latins, and who was very precise in the use of words, applies educatio to preparatory instruction, hut uses insstitutio to represent what we call academic instruction.
Modern Conceptions. - Among modern conceptions, that which was embodied in the ideal of the founders of the Prussian national system has been the most popular among recent writers, and perhaps the least satisfactory. By them education is stated to bo "the harmonious and equable evolution of the human powers." (See Bain's Education as a Science.) All correct definitions of training must refer to Plato, who said, "Good education is that which gives to the body and to the soul all the perfection of which they are capable."
