The Education of Henry Adams: An Autobiography Kessinger Publishing, 2010 - 532 pages 1918. American literature offers scarcely one working model for high education. The student must go back, beyond Jean Jacques, to Benjamin Franklin, to find a model even of self-teaching. Except in the abandoned sphere of the dead languages, no one has discussed what part of education has, in his personal experience, turned out to be useful and what not. This volume attempts to discuss it. |
