Publisher's Synopsis
Lo Cléricalisme, Questions D'Éducation Nationale Avec Une Préface De A. Aulard, by Paul Bert, examines the pervasive influence of clericalism within the French national education system around 1900. Bert, a prominent figure in French politics and a strong advocate for secular education, critiques the role of the clergy in shaping educational policies and curricula. This work delves into the historical context of the late 19th century, a period marked by intense debates over the separation of church and state and the role of religion in public life.
With a preface by A. Aulard, a renowned historian, this book offers valuable insights into the political and social dynamics of the era. It addresses critical questions about the control of education, the impact of religious doctrine on national identity, and the struggle for a secular, republican education system. "Lo Cléricalisme" remains a significant contribution to the study of French history, educational policy, and the ongoing tension between religious and secular forces in shaping modern societies.
