Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book, published in 1820 and the first of the author's publications preserved for posterity, is a compilation of fourteen of the author's addresses delivered at Bowdoin College between the years 1808-1819. They cover topics from classical studies to the importance of application to the dangers of college life. The author provides insight into the moral issues of his time, morality, virtue, the difference between moral actions, and the importance of religion, and how they continue to impact the public discourse of his day. His commitment to the idea that morality must be central to any educated society shines through each of his speeches, and his analysis of the moral landscape of his time offers valuable insight to readers interested not just in the moral philosophies of the past, but the ways in which morality in education remains a topic of enduring importance.
