This book studies the development of the early educational theories of John Amos Comenius from the insights, theories, and writings of previous educational reformers. The author argues that the germ of Comenius's seminal ideas can be traced to the earlier writings of Vives, Bacon, and Ratke. Vives, an early reformer of the 16th century, emphasized a Christian model of education and argued for the education of women. Bacon argued for the importance of inductive reasoning and the investigation of nature in education. Ratke developed a plan for teaching languages that was methodical and based on an understanding of child development. The reforms proposed by Comenius were heavily influenced by the work of these earlier reformers, and his ideas about the importance of the natural world in education, the development of teaching methods based on child psychology, and the value of education for all students were first explored in the writings of these educational pioneers.
