Froebel as a pioneer in modern psychology
Murray, E. R. (Elsie Riach)
Fröbel, Friedrich, 1782-1852; Psychology
[53] Mr. Graham Wallas said: “From the beginning of the Darwinian
reconstruction of the moral sciences, it was absurd, while speaking
of ‘environment,’ to ignore the fact that the deliberate care and
contrivance of the parent must form a large part of the environment of
the child.” The passage quoted shows that Froebel was guilty of no such
absurdity.
[54] “Is Development from Within?” “Child Life,” October, 1904, and
January, 1905.
[55] See _p. 192_.
[56] “Second Review of Plays: A Fragment,” but part of this has been
omitted in the English translation.
[57] Those who desire a full and scholarly account of Froebel’s
philosophy are referred to that given by Professor Angus MacVannel,
Ph.D., “Teachers’ College Record,” Vol. IV, No. 5. The Macmillan Co., New
York.
[58] In Gottes Welt, eben weil es die Welt Gottes, durch Gott Gewordenes
ist, spricht sich ein Stetiges, das heisst ungetrennt Fortgehendes der
Entwickelung in Allem und durch Alles aus.
[59] See Appendix, _p. 216_.
[60] “Das Pedagogik des Kindergartens,” _p. 329_.
[61] According to this principle, the mere fact that a particle is moving
with a certain velocity in a certain direction, is in itself a reason why
it should continue to move with the same velocity in the same direction.…
Now, in so far as continuance of change in a certain direction is
traceable to the pre-existence of change in that direction, this whole
process may be regarded as being in a perfectly intelligible sense,
self-determining (“Analytic Psychology,” Vol. I, _p. 146_).
[62] “Analytic Psychology,” Vol. I, _p. 147_.
[63] “Analytic Psychology,” Vol. I, _p. 168_.
[64] “Analytic Psychology,” Vol. I, _p. 155_.
[65] “Analytic Psychology,” Vol. I, _p. 156_.
[66] “Analytic Psychology,” Vol. I, _p. 156_.
[67] _P. 191._
[68] And so to regard “each successive moment of the world-process as
issuing out of the preceding by purely immanent casuality.”
[69] “Analytic Psychology,” Vol. I, _p. 156_.
[70] “Unity and Froebel are synonymous terms,” is one “howler” from a
student’s examination paper.
