Book Description
Excerpt from Sermons Preached at Uppingham School, Vol. 1 School sermons have a certain value of their own as belonging to a current of life; just as a streamlet flowing in a valley has more of human interest than a shower of rain. There is a touch of auld lang syne about them, a freshness of young hearts and boyhood, which never quite leaves them. If, more over, they have had any creative power, and have entered into the lives, and they and the Chapel have been a kind of home, in, and round, which the thoughts of the young have clustered, then, quite apart from anything else, they embody a cause, and may be loved as a sort of special property; so that in after years the man may send a brightness into them from his own soul, because his boyish recollections are bright. This is my apology, if apology is needed, for pouring forth this little rivulet of Uppingham life. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Edward Thring’s Theory, Practice and Legacy
Author: Malcolm TozerPublisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1527531058
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 396
Book Description
The traditional picture of a Victorian public school assumes that it was founded on Thomas Arnold, Tom Brown’s Schooldays and Rugby football. A Rifle Corps, Oxbridge Blues on the teaching staff, and an ethos of esprit de corps were all part of the system. The cult of athleticism reigned supreme. This was not the case at Uppingham School during Edward Thring’s headmastership from 1853 to 1887. Here a balanced physical education of gymnastics, athletics, games, swimming and country pursuits flourished within a sane but revolutionary educational framework. Thring’s Uppingham, however, was an Athens surrounded by Spartan strongholds. The Spartans were kept at bay during Thring’s lifetime, but, after his death, they closed in and even claimed Thring as one of their own. His ideals were hijacked by the sportsmen and then perverted by the militarists. Thring’s theory and practice of physical education lived on outside the traditional public schools, was adopted by the progressive school movement, and eventually found acceptance in all good schools. Its legacy can be found in the first National Curriculum for Physical Education and in all schools that value physical education as a vital ingredient of holistic education. This book will inform trainee teachers, practising teachers and teacher trainers of the men and women who have strived since 1800 to secure a place for physical education in the curriculum for all pupils. Historians of education, gender, society and sport will find new material to illuminate their fields of study.
