For the first time textbooks and other educational writings
published in England and America in the three centuries before the
'modern' phase of English teaching (about 1700 volumes in all) have
been subject to a detailed and scholarly examination. Most of the
American material will be new to readers outside the United States
and much of it is little known there. The writings vividly
demonstrate the development of English as a teaching subject: when
its varied components were first taught, by what kinds of teachers,
with what intentions and by what methods. Ian Michael has made a
major contribution to the history of education and of literacy, and
of English in particular. Not only academic educationalists
interested in the history of the curriculum, but teachers - from
primary schools to university - who want to investigate the
historical background of their subject and discover how their
forerunners taught - will find this book of compelling interest.
