Excerpt from Schools of Hellas: An Essay on the Practice and Theory of Ancient Greek Education From to 600 to 300 B. C The subject is in One respect specially appropriate to a youthful hand. Perhaps at no time is a man more likely to have fresh and living impressions about education than when he has himself just ceased to be a pupil, when he has just completed the subordinate stages Of a long and strenuous self-culture. It will be seen, in more than one place, that the author is not content with the purely historical aspect Of his theme, but suggests criticisms and even practical applications. It may be thought that these remarks upon a matter of pressing and growing importance are by no means the less deserving Of consideration because the writer, when he speaks of the schoolboy and the undergraduate, is unquestionably an authentic witness. But, as I have already said, the work will commend itself sufficiently to those interested in the topic, if only as a conspectus Of facts, presented with orderly arrange ment and in a simple and perspicuous style. It is not my part here to express personal feelings. But I cannot dismiss this, the first and only fruit of the classical studies Of Kenneth Freeman, without a word Of profound sorrow for the premature loss Of a most honourable heart and Vigorous mind. He was one whom a teacher may freely praise, without suspicion Of partiality for, whatever he was, he was no mere pro duct Of lessons, as this, his first essay, will sufficiently show. It is not what he would have made it; but it is his own, and it is worthy Of him. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Not illustrated. 1908 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER V SECONDARY EDUCATION: I. THE SOPHISTS At fourteen or soon after, it was usual for the ordinary course of letters and lyre-playing to terminate: the gymnastic lessons might be carried on till old age interrupted them. During the first three-quarters of the fifth century, the lad, on leaving school, was left to live more or less as he pleased, if he was rich enough not to have to work for his living: the sons of poorer citizens at this age, if not before, settled down to learn a trade or engaged in merchandise. Rich boys, no doubt, spent most of their time in athletic pursuits; riding and chariot-driving were favourite amusements. But with the Periclean age arose a violent desire for a further course of intellectual study, and a system of secondary education arose, to occupy the four years which elapsed between the time when the lad finished his primary education and the time when the State summoned him to undergo his two years of military training. Many of the primary schools of the better sort started courses of study for lads, providing, no doubt, separate class-rooms, or else the younger boys attended at different hours from those at which the elder pupils assembled. Probably some such provision had been made much earlier for those who -.wished to obtain a more advanced knowledge of literature and music than was offered by the primary schools. But in the time of Sokrates many masters seemed to have held classes for lads as well as for boys. On entering the schools of Dionusios,1 the master of letters, Sokrates finds a class of lads assembled here.2 They all belong to noble families: the poor were no doubt unable to afford education of this sort. Two of the lads were busy discussing a point of astronomy, and were quoting the...
