Excerpt from Remarks on Classical and Utilitarian Studies: Read Before the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, Dec; 20, 1866
Pompeii Show that much empirical progress had been made in arts which were not scientifically understood, nor carried to their just maturity. The machinery of luxury did not represent the machin ery of use. The conquest of enemies had not been found to be the conquest of matter or Of mind. Light was occasionally and fitfully kindled, but was as often suffered to go out. Discoveries were begun and abandoned in their incipient and abortive state. It is remarkable that a Roman once got SO far as to print his Own name with a stamp, but was not visited with the revelation, that, by transposing his letters or types, he might print the name of another; and thus the discovery of printing was delayed for more than a thousand years.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book roots the debate over the importance of classical and utilitarian studies in the foundational pillars of education. The author establishes that the value of any pursued field of study is not singularly tied to its age or popularity, but rather to its ability to contribute to the greater progress and benefit of humanity. The author employs examples from history to demonstrate the trajectory of human advancement and knowledge, showing that prioritizing practical utilitarian advancements has borne more progress than clinging to traditional systems of study. This book provokes thought and challenges readers to consider what constitutes a valuable education in the face of ongoing innovation and humanity's ever-expanding knowledge base.
