Förlagets beskrivning
Excerpt from Unconscious TuitionBut not only must we dismiss those mechanical, resemblances which liken the mind to a store house, a museum or a library; we must also. Carry our conception of learning above the notion of an agile and adroit brain. Education does not consist in provoking bare intellectual dexterity, any more than in presenting ascertained truth to the intellectual perceptions or in both together. Education involves appeals to faith, to feeling, to volition. The realm of positive science shades off on every side - not by abrupt transi-r tion but by imperceptible gradations - into the realm of trust nor does science consult her. Dignity more than her modesty when she under takes to sharpen the partition-line of hostility be: tween knowledge and belief. So does the true training of the mind involve an engagement of the affections, including taste or the sense of beauty, and love or the sense of good, both the mind's freedom and its harmony being dependent on a healthy heart. And so, again, the understand ing and the feelings wait on that brave executor, the will and nobody can be Wise who leaves its scholarship neglected.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
