Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Neglected Educator: Johann Heinrich Alsted
Pedagogy is the science of attaining scholastic happiness. It is called by some, school polity (politia scholastica).
It is either general or special. General pedagogy relates its end, its subject, and its means. The end of pedagogy is either internal or external.
The internal end is to relate the right upbringing of the youth, and so the method of satisfactorily organising and administering the school.
