Publisher's Synopsis
The book ""Speeches Of Drs. Tyng, Parker, And Everts At The Boston Meeting, In Behalf Of The American Sunday School Union (1844)"" is a collection of speeches given by three prominent American religious figures - Dr. Stephen Higginson Tyng, Dr. Theodore Parker, and Dr. William Everts - at a meeting in Boston in 1844. The speeches were given in support of the American Sunday School Union, an organization that aimed to promote the education and moral development of children through Sunday schools. Dr. Tyng's speech emphasized the importance of Sunday schools in providing children with a solid moral foundation and helping to build a strong and virtuous society. He argued that Sunday schools were essential in combating the growing social ills of the time, such as poverty, crime, and immorality. Dr. Parker, on the other hand, took a more critical approach in his speech, questioning the effectiveness of Sunday schools and suggesting that they were not doing enough to address the root causes of social problems. He called for a more radical approach to education, one that would challenge the existing power structures and promote greater social equality. Dr. Everts' speech focused on the practical aspects of Sunday school education, offering advice and suggestions for how teachers could better engage with their students and promote their moral and intellectual development. He stressed the importance of creating a positive and supportive learning environment, and of tailoring teaching methods to the individual needs and abilities of each student.Overall, ""Speeches Of Drs. Tyng, Parker, And Everts At The Boston Meeting, In Behalf Of The American Sunday School Union (1844)"" provides a fascinating insight into the debates and discussions surrounding education and social reform in mid-19th century America. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of education, religion, and social reform in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
