The Meaning of Education WITH OTHER ESSAYS AND ADDRESSES BY NICHOLAS MURRAY BUTLER Columbia University Cloth. i2mo. $i.oo HAMILTON W. MABIE " I do not recall any recent discussion of educational questions which has seemed to me so adequate in knowl- edge and so full of genuine insight. I like the frankness, the honesty, and the courage of the papers immensely." State Supt. CHARLES R. SKINNER, Albany, N. Y. " A volume which will be eagerly sought and thoroughly enjoyed. It is clear, strong, and wholesome." REVIEW OF REVIEWS " We are sure that the teachers of the country will be glad to have these articles and addresses brought together in a single volume. On all that pertains to the science of edu- cation, no writer more readily commands assent than Dr. Butler." DETROIT FREE PRESS " Dr. Butler's unfoldment of his views and theories is marked by clearness of statement, a lucid style, and deep thoughtfulness and logic. The book is suggestive and inspiring." THE SENTINEL (Milwaukee) " Professor Butler's book is rife with ideas and suggestions which will render it valuable to all thoughtful people, and these are lucidly presented and urged in a most persuasive way." PUBI>ISHED BY THE MACMILLAN COMPANY 66 FIFTH AVENUE, NEW YORK Source Book of the History of Education FOR THE GREEK AND ROMAN PERIOD By PAUL MONROE, Ph.D. Adjunct Professor of the History of Education, Teachers College, Columbia University Cloth. i2mo. $2.25, net The aim of this work is to put in the hands of students in a convenient form the sources in the history of education for the classical period. These sources are so scattered that it is impossible for the student to have access to them away from a large library, and even with such advantage it is not possible for a class to use such sources, scattered as they are through so many volumes. The need for such a volume is the greater from the fact that few of the existing histories of education in English are written from the sources, and those few are not ordinarily used by the students, being limited as they are to special periods. The aim of tlie author is to furnish the student with the most accurate sources of information, and to connect such fragments with a very brief discussion that will form a complete narrative and will indicate the value and the principles of interpretation of the sources. The plan of the book is as follows : Selections are made from the vari- ous Greek and Roman authors relating to the school life and educational ideas and practices of the various periods of classical history. Thus the following topics are illustrated : Spartan education, by a selection from Plutarch's Lycurgus ; Old Athe- nian Education, by selections from Thucydides and from Plato's dialogues; the work of the Sophists and the opposition between the old and the new Greek education, by selections from Plato's dialogues, from Isocrates and from the Clouds of Aristophanes; the later Greek education, by selections from Plutarcli's essays ; the Greek theory and philosophy of education is represented by selections from the Republic and the Laws of Plato, Xeno- phon's Cyropedia and the Politics of Aristotle. In the Roman period the contrast between the old Roman and the Gr;iico-Roman education is given by the selections from Tacitus, Pliny, Seneca, Marcus Aurelius, and Sue- tonius, and many brief passages from various authors. The Graeco-Roman education is fully described in selections from Quintilian and Cicero. These selections will include almost all the passages to be lound in classical litera- ture bearing directly on the subject of education and school life, and are full enough to give as complete and exact knowledge of those subjects as is possible now to obtain without exhaustive study. — v^^^^ PUBLISIIKD BY THE MACMILLAN COMPANY 66 FIFTH AVENUE, NEW YORK ..CXFrAIICADi.
