Excerpt from Great Educators of Three Centuries, Vol. 1 of 3: Their Work and Its Influence on Modern Education

IT has now come to be understood that a series of essays upon the educational reformers cannot by any stretch of the imagination be termed a 'history of education.' The biographical and personal details must be subordi mated and brought into perspective, and a suitable his torical and philosophical connection given a work, before it can be so dignified. The present volume, therefore, is not intended to be a continuation of my History of Education before the Middle Ages and my treatment of the Middle Ages and the Transition to Modern Times. To a certain extent it duplicates material toward the end of the latter volume, and it largely anticipates my History of Education in M odem Times, but the nature and purpose of the present work are quite different.
