Beschreibung
John Henry Newman's 'The Idea of a University Defined and Illustrated' is a seminal work that delves into the purpose and role of a university in society. Written in a clear and eloquent style, Newman explores the importance of a liberal education, the pursuit of knowledge for its own sake, and the development of critical thinking skills. Drawing upon his own experiences as an educator and scholar, Newman argues for a holistic approach to education that values both the sciences and the humanities. The book is a timeless reflection on the essence of higher education and its significance in shaping individuals and society. Newman's literary context includes his position as a leading intellectual and religious figure in 19th-century England, which informs his insightful perspective on education and learning. His background as a theologian and philosopher adds depth to his exploration of the university as a place of intellectual growth and moral formation. 'The Idea of a University Defined and Illustrated' is highly recommended for readers interested in the philosophy of education, the role of universities in society, and the pursuit of knowledge for personal and societal enrichment.
