This book explores the impact of the Lesson Books of the National
Board of Education in Ireland in the nineteenth century. The author
contextualizes the books used in national schools as well as across
the wider British Empire: in doing so, he highlights the influence
of the religious, social, political and cultural realms of the
time. Firmly grounding the volume in its historical context, the
author goes on to explore the contemporary moral climate and social
influences, including imperialism, morality, rote-learning and
socialization. Through meticulous analysis of each Lesson Book, the
author traces the evolution of education in Ireland as a reflection
of contemporary society, as it changes and transforms in line with
cultural, religious and social changes. This pioneering and
comprehensive volume will be of interest and value to students and
scholars of education in Ireland as well as education in the
British Empire more widely.
