Excerpt from The Philosophy of Education

This work was translated originally for The Journal of Speculative Philosophy appearing in volumes vi, vii, and viii of that periodical(1872- 73- 74:). It was intended for the use of philosophical students - who, in general, admire precise technical terms - and the terse German of the original was rendered by equally terse English. An edition of two thousand copies was reprinted in a separate volume. Demands for the work continuing after the first edition was exhausted, it was determined to publish a new one. For this purpose a revision has been made of the translation with a view to better adapt it to the needs of readers not skilled in philosophy. Where it has been thought necessary, phrases, or even entire sentences, have been used to convey the sense of a single word of the original. Typographical errors that had crept into the first edition, through careless proof-reading, have been carefully corrected. It may be safely claimed that no obscurity remains except such as is due to the philosophic depth and generality of the treatment. In this respect the translation is now more intelligible than the original.
