Lessons in Humanity
Beschreibung
– from the Life and Work of Jan Amos Comenius
Though once called the “father of modern education,” Jan Amos Komensky receives little more attention than the occasional reference in a history of education text today. This is to be regretted, since Komensky has much humanizing fare to offer to the standards-driven educational scene today. Jan Habl’s important book reminds us of Komensky’s educational ideas and draws attention to the role of the transcendent in his thought. In these secular and often dehumanizing times, educators would do well to read this book.
