Editor's Note:
Excerpt from The Story of Oliver Twist: Condensed for Home, and School ReadingSome minds are so full of lumber that there is no space left to set up a workshop. The necessity of uniting both of these directions of intellectual activity in the schools is therefore obvious, but we must not, in this place, fall into the error of supposing that it is the oral instruction in school and the personal influ ence of the teacher alone that excites the pupil to ac tivity. Book instruction is not always dry and theo retical. The very persons who declaim against the book, and praise in such strong terms the self-activity of the pupil and original research, are mostly persons who have received their practical impulse from read ing the writings of educational reformers. Very few persons have received an impulse from personal con tact with inspiring teachers compared with the num ber that have received an impulse from such books as Herbert Spencer's Treatise on Education, Rousseau's Emile, Pestalozzi's Leonard and Gertrude, Francis W. Parker's Talks about Teaching, G. Stanley Hall's Pedagogical Seminary. Think in this connec tion, too, of the impulse to observation in natural sci ence produced by such books as those of Hugh Miller, Faraday, Tyndall, Huxley, Agassiz, and Darwin.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
