Comenius and the Beginnings of Educational Reform
Monroe, W. S. (Will Seymour)
Comenius, Johann Amos, 1592-1670; Education -- History; Educational change -- History
11. _Johann Amos Comenius: sein Leben und seine
Schriften._ Von Johann Kvacsala. Berlin: Julius
Klinkhardt. 1892. pp. 480 + 89.
This, so far as I know, is the most comprehensive
life of Comenius to be found in any language; but at
many points it is unnecessarily tedious and diffuse.
12. _Rein’s Encyclopädisches Handbuch der
Pädagogik._ Langensalza: Hermann Beyer und Söhne.
Vol. I. pp. 558–569.
An excellent brief article by A. Nebe. An article on
the Comenius-Stiftung follows (pp. 569–573).
13. _Der Anschauungsunterricht in der deutschen
Schule von Amos Comenius bis zur Gegenwart._ Von
Gottlieb Gustav Deussing. Frankenberg: C. C.
Rossberg. 1884. pp. 66.
A historical and critical dissertation on the growth
of object teaching and nature study.
14. _Die pädagogischen Grundgedanken des Amos
Comenius._ Von Hermann Gottsched. Magdeburg: A. und
R. Faber. 1879. pp. 64.
A dissertation on Comenius’ philosophy of education.
15. _Comenius: ein Systematiker in der Pädagogik._
Von Walter Müller. Dresden: Bleyl und Kaemmer. 1887.
pp. 50.
A dissertation on the contributions of Comenius to
systematic pedagogy and school systems.
16. _Die Pädagogik des Spaniers Johann Ludwig Vives
und sein Einfluss auf Joh. Amos Comenius._ Erlangen:
Junge und Sohn. 1890. pp. 69.
Indicates traces of the educational theories of
Comenius in the writings of Vives.
17. _Die Didaktik Basedows im Vergleiche zur
Didaktik des Comenius._ Von Petru Garbovicianu.
Bucharest: Carol Göbl. 1887. pp. 82.
The influence of the _Great didactic_ of Comenius on
Basedow and his institution is pointed out.
18. _Schmidt’s Encyclopädie des gesammten Erziehungs
und Unterrichtswesen._ Gotha: Besser. 1876. Vol. I.
pp. 941–951.
The article is by G. Baur. It is less comprehensive,
although more sympathetic, than the article in
Raumer’s _Geschichte der Pädagogik_.
19. _Buisson’s Dictionnaire de pédagogie et
d’instruction primaire._ Paris: Hanchette et Cie.
1887. Vol I. Part I. pp. 421–427.
Three brief but discriminating articles. The
first, on the life of Comenius, by C. Progler (pp.
421–423); the second, on the pedagogical writings of
Comenius, by Ferdinand Buisson (pp. 423–426); the
third, on the permanent influences of Comenius, by
A. Daguet (pp. 426–427).
