Publisher's Synopsis
Over de opvoeding der kinderen is a Dutch translation of John Locke's influential work on education, likely based on Le Clerc's French translation. Originally published in English as "Some Thoughts Concerning Education", Locke's treatise outlines his progressive views on child development and learning. This edition, translated by Pieter Adriaen Verwer, makes Locke's ideas accessible to a Dutch-speaking audience in the mid-18th century. Locke emphasizes the importance of a well-rounded education that cultivates virtue, reason, and practical skills. His emphasis on the individual child and the importance of experience revolutionized educational thinking and continues to resonate with educators and parents today. This edition offers a valuable glimpse into the dissemination and reception of Locke's influential educational philosophy across Europe.
