Rollin held Jansenist principles a Christian theological movement originated primarily in France that emphasized original sin human depravity the necessity of divine grace and predestination. Unfortunately he was persecuted for his beliefs. Most of his writings including his works on ancient history came later in life when he had been forbidden to teach. The most important work was his Traite des etudes Paris 1726-31 and contains a summary of what was even then a reformed and innovative system of education including a more frequent and extensive use of the vernacular language and a discarding of lingering medieval traditions.

His Traite des etudes Paris 1726-31 contains a summary of what was even then a reformed and innovative system of education including a more frequent and extensive use of the vernacular language and a discarding of lingering medieval traditions.

Charles Rollin January 30 1661-December 14 1741 was a French historian and educationist. He was born at Paris. He was the son of a cutler and at the age of twenty-two was made a master in the Collège du Plessis. In 1694 he was rector of the University of Paris rendering great service among other things by reviving the study of Greek. He held that post for two years instead of one and in 1699 was appointed principal of the Collège de Beauvais.<br/>Rollin held Jansenist principles and even went so far as to defend the miracles supposed to be worked at the tomb of François de Paris commonly known as Deacon Paris. Unfortunately his religious opinions deprived him of his appointments and disqualified him for the rectorship to which in 1719 he had been re-elected. It is said that the same reason prevented his election to the Académie française though he was a member of the Academie des Inscriptions. Shortly before his death he protested publicly against the acceptance of the bull Unigenitus.<br/>Rollin's literary work dates chiefly from the later years of his life when he had been forbidden to teach. His once famous Ancient History Paris 1730-38 and the less generally read Roman History which followed it were avowed compilations uncritical and somewhat inaccurate. But they instructed and interested generation after generation almost to the present day. A more important work was his Traité des études Paris 1726-31. It contains a summary of what was even then a reformed and innovative system of education advocating a more frequent and extensive use of the vulgar tongue and discarding the medieval traditions that had lingered in France.

Born in Paris Rollin was made a master in the Collège du Plessis at the age of 22. In 1694 he was made rector of the University of Paris where among other things he revived the study of Greek. He held that post for two years and was then appointed principal of the Collège de Beauvais in 1699. Rollin held Jansenist views and his career suffered as a result of his religious opinions disqualifying him to be elected for the rectorship a second time in 1719 and possibly the reason his election to the Académie Française was barred. In the later years of his life after he had been forbidden to teach Rollin began publishing literary works including his famous "Ancient History" published in Paris between 1730 and 1738. In the present celebrated work Rollin sought to pass down the useful lessons he learned from his long career at the University of Paris to young teachers. In the introduction he writes on the aims of teaching and a "well-rounded" education: intellectual training moral training Christian education and the development of judgment and literary and artistic taste. He includes the sciences mathematics French Greek and Latin languages poetry history and philosophy as essential subjects. This manual stays in the predominant educational tradition of the time but Rollin exhibits some interest in developing certain educational reforms considered radical at the time including studying and writing in French over the "dead languages" and using readings and examples as opposed to simple rhetorical exercises. The last part is made up of interesting memories and personal experiences elaborating on the psychological impact of the bond between teacher and student. chez la Veuve Estienne unknown books
