Lockes treatise grew out of a correspondence dating from 1684 between himself and his friend Edward Clarke whom he was advising on the education of his son. Locke was in Holland at the time. "His thought was marked by a ready understanding of and sympathy with children. Three main thoughts dominate the work. First the individual aptitudes capacities and idiosyncrasies of the child should govern learning not arbitrary curricular or rote learning taught by the rod. Second Locke placed the health of the body and the development of a sound character ahead of intellectual learning. In the third place he saw that play high spirits and the "gamesome humor" natural to children should govern the business of learning wherever possible. Compulsory learning is irksome; where there is play in learning there is also joy in it. Throughout he placed emphasis on good example practice and use rather than on precepts rules and punishment. The work was an implicit criticism of his own education at Westminster and Oxford which he found unpleasant and largely useless." James Gordon Clapp Encyc. of Philosophy p. 500 Wing 2762A.
