Excerpt from Teachers Manvals: Comenius: His Life and Principles of Education

The greatest and most important of all the reformers whose life and work have been recorded in the annals of pedagogy is certainly Amos Comenius, the prophet, among educationists, as he has been called.

A pure, profound, and loving heart; a restless will; a highly-gifted, wide-seeing, self-thinking, and powerful mind; and an experience that had been wrought from the vicissitudes of life, united with a disinterested, untiring zeal in all his works, a longing and striving for a better future of mankind, - make him one of the noblest characters in the educational field. What he has done for the science and art of teaching will never be forgotten as long as education progresses in the way that he opened up, leading as it does to the goal of ennobled humanity. His theory of teaching, as a whole, surpasses any that had been proposed up to his time. To Comenius, first of all, we owe it that pedagogy was regarded as a science and teaching as an art.
