Contents:
Introduction -- A new school for a new age -- Blame it on the parents? -- College days -- A new way of teaching -- The professor -- That old-time religion -- "For fathers and mothers of families and nations" : the Methodenbuch -- "A well-ordered stock of all necessary knowledge" : the Elementarwerk -- Back to school -- After school -- "The mother of all good schools in the world".
Summary: "Best known for the progressive school he founded in Dessau during the 18th century, Johann Bernhard Basedow was a central thinker in the German Enlightenment. In this first English intellectual biography, Robert B. Louden answers questions that continue to surround Basedow and provides a much-needed examination of his intellectual legacy. Assessing the impact of his ideas and theories on subsequent educational movements, Louden argues that Basedow is the unacknowledged father of the progressive education movement and reveals the enormous debt that Kant owes to him in his philosophy of education, history, and religion"-- Provided by publisher.
