Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from An Outline of the History of Educational Theories in England
In the domain of elementary education, Professor Thorold Rogers supports the view here taken of the value of the education that was given in England in pre-renascence times. He devotes several pages of his work on The British Citizen to the proof of his opinion that there is good reason to believe that before the Reformation what we call primary education was much more widely afforded than people think, and there is equally good reason to believe that after the Reformation the quality and the amount of this education greatly deteriorated.
