Diderot y expose ses conceptions novatrices sur la formation du langage et annonce plusieurs de ses théories esthétiques notamment "le modèle idéal", "le sublime" ou "le spectateur de sang-froid", théories qu’il reprendra par la suite dans ses "Salons" ou dans le 'Paradoxe sur le comédien'. (Adams, LH4. Tchemerzine-Scheler, II, 929 notes de L. Scheler). Très bel exemplaire, très frais, grand de marges, imprimé sur papier fort, très bien relié à l'époque.

SUBJECT(S) : Jews -- Education -- New York (State) -- New York. The Hebrew Free School Association was a 19th-century organization that countered efforts of Christian missionaries by founding a group of free schools for New York Citys Jewish immigrant children. In 1864, Christian missionaries had opened a school on the Lower East Side that offered to teach Hebrew to Jewish children, but the offer proved only a lure to convert Jewish children to Christianity. Outraged, a dozen Reform and Orthodox congregations opened a Hebrew free school nearby, with a complete Hebrew studies program that supplemented the standard curriculum of secular public schools. The school was so successful that the organizers formed a Free Hebrew School Association that opened branches in other Jewish neighborhoods. Aside from turning back the threat posed by Christian missionaries, the association, which was made up of successful, Americanized Jews of German origin, became a major instrument for helping newly arrived Jewsmostly from impoverished shtetls and ghettoes of eastern Europeto adapt to their new country. In addition to traditional secular education and studies in the Hebrew language and Jewish religion and history, the schools taught the new arrivals hygiene and other American ways unknown in their homelands. The schools began closing in the 1870s, as the New York public school system expanded and as those Jews who had learned their lessons well emerged from the slums and moved elsewhere to assimilate with other Americans (Encyclopedia of American Education, 2011).

18905955Kutztown PA 1890. Quarter roan over marbled boards measuring 8 x 6.25 inches and comprised of 73 pages of manuscript text including a mixture of notes passed between friends on the verso of the final leaf and on the rear pastedown. Spine largely perished with boards and textblock held together by cords. Several leaves neatly excised towards rear. Containing notes from Fannie Hottenstein's courses in teacher training the present volumes offer researchers a range of study topics including the history of pedagogy and women's increasingly visible place in American education; the book also is a valuable resource for examining how educated young women were thinking through their own lives and roles -- as individuals and as a generation. <br /> <br /> Trained in one of the most educationally progressive states at the time Fannie Hottenstein was one of a generation of women who could more widely dream about and pursue more independent lives than their matriarchs. Historically Pennsylvania had been a vanguard for public and progressive education. "In his 1830 address to the state legislature Governor George Wold championed the cause of universal public education" as a scaffold for "the security and stability of the individual privileges we have inherited from our ancestors" Explore History. Before the decade was over "more than 1000 local school districts under a single statewide system of instruction" had been founded working to regularize "educational standards curriculum and instructional credentials" in tandem with the 1857 Normal School Act which founded "a network of ten state academies to prepare public school teachers" Explore History. Fannie attended one of these preparing for a career in education that would give her a new level of social and economic independence. <br /> <br /> Much of Fannie's notebook reflects the kind of rigorous work required to teach middle and high school students. Contents include for example three pages of facts on basic Botany; fifteen pages on the practice of Logic in writing and debate including an extensive section on presenting proper Opposition accompanied by text book page numbers; and five pages on pedagogical methods for helping students develop curiosity and drive it forward into productive study. There are additional fairly staid essay samples on topics such as Influence and Gentleness. Yet it is in the thirteen page essay We Girls that sparks of Fannie's individuality ambition and independence show. In it she reveals how much contact she has had with the period's literature on women's rights and suffrage; she shows her familiarity with anti-feminist arguments in opposition to women like her; and she powerfully expresses her hopes not only for her generation but the ones that follow.<br /> <br /> Fannie opens: "It is a recognized fact that the degree of civilization of every nation is marked by the social position of woman. Indeed one of the most prominent features of the progress of civilization is her gradual elevation in society and the clear perception and recognition of her rights. In the earlier ages of the world when the sphere of her influence was bounded by the narrow prejudices of the opposite sex her happiness as well as her mental improvement and social rank depended more on what was done for her at the hands of men than on what she could do for herself. All this is changed now." Fannie praises the hard-won changes women accomplished in accessing education and job training; and she touts how many opportunities are available for women to dream about and pursue. This does not mean she's unaware of the challenges that continue -- particularly from men. "We have to contend with the prejudice sometimes entertained against us that our highest destiny in life is to be a pretty piece of furniture in a handsome parlor. Men who entertain this notion we girls must always urge to get their furniture somewhere else." To those who accuse women of being too emotional and insufficiently intellectual she also has a response. "Our aim must be to develop and perfect our entire nature mental social and moral" she argues. Only by embracing both thinking and feeling as strengths can any individual -- man or women she contends -- succeed. Women are in a unique position to embrace both. <br /> <br /> A truly rich document which also includes brief notes among Fannie and her friends about their flirtations and recent purchases of accessories at the end gives insight into the development of a young woman who would go on to live what she preached. According to the US Census of 1900 Fannie remained single and lived in a boarding house working as an office stenographer. unknown
18703389United Kingdom 1870. Geography notebook of Mary Barker: Quarter black roan over marbled boards measuring 9 x 7 inches. Comprised of a calligraphic title and frontis plus 59 hand drawn-and-colored maps done by a young woman in her first three years of teacher training. Throughout Mary annotates on the margins which year and term she is in and occasionally notes that the map was drawn "From Memory"; and each map has penciled corrections and assessments. <br /> <br /> with Geography notebook of Allison Jane Gillespy: Quarter cloth over marbled boards. Calligraphic title page and 35 intricately hand drawn maps from the British Empire Europe and the Middle East. <br /> <br /> A pairing of beautiful and research-worthy notebooks documenting teacher training in the late nineteenth century as well as providing a look into how geographies changed across time and how British educators were being trained to perceive and educate the young about other parts of the world and how they connected to the British empire. With nearly 100 pages combined the notebooks offer scholars important comparative opportunities and means for better understanding the rising number of women educators and authors publishing works that engaged geography and international cultures during the Victorian era.<br /> <br /> "The Wesleyan Methodists had a school for ministers' daughters at Trinity Hall Southport.which admitted both boarders and day girls.to educate ministers daughters and train teachers" Roach. Pupil teacher programs like the one Mary Barker was enrolled in had become a popular method of producing teachers at a time when the public's access to education expanded and the demand for instructors was at a high. Such programs functioned like an apprentice system taking a senior pupil typically thirteen years old and putting her in a five year assistantship to her own instructor. Pupil teachers typically took on responsibility for teaching lower classes observing their superiors educate the more advanced students and completing their own educations. By the 1870s these programs had become standardized to ensure proper preparation for instructors Robinson. <br /> <br /> Mary's maps trace this process. As she moved from her first to her third year in this notebook the quality and care she puts into her work improves. Her handwriting and attention to detail matures. And her assessments move from Fair to Good and Very Good. Maps in the notebook include nearby locales such as Ireland Scotland and the British Isles as a whole; European nations including Sweden Norway and Prussia as well as eastern Europe and Russia. Mary also maps out "Arabia" and the "Chinese Empire" as well as "Further India" revealing a wide array of changing borders and shifting cultural attitudes. <br /> <br /> While Allison does not leave any marker of her class age or school the level of intricacy in her maps suggests she was a senior student or finished instructor. These appear to be fair copies not done from memory but prepared as examples for students or as teaching aids.<br /> <br /> Together the two provide a comparative opportunity to study the history and politics of mapping nineteenth century girls' education pedagogy and pedagogical training and geography. unknown

He Quotes The Alabama Educational Commission Itself "The Constitution Of 1868 Though Enacted By A So-Called "Carpetbag" Government Dealt With The Subject Of Education In A Manner Far More Liberal And Infinitely Better Calculated To Promote General Intelligence Than Does Either The Constitution Of 1875 Or That Of 1901." Skaggs Quotes Abraham Lincoln In A Letter To Joshua F. Speed: "The Slave-Breeders And Slave-Traders Are A Small Odious And Detested Class Among You; And Yet In Politics They Dictate The Course Of All Of You And Are As Completely Your Masters As You Are The Masters Of Your Own Negroes." This Breed At The Top Poisoned Every Branch Of Government In The South.
