Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from State Control of Instruction: A Study of Centralization in Public Education
Though puritanism was the consummate ?ower of English intellect,2 it must be remembered that the emigrants shared the prevailing opinions, prejudices, and modes of thinking of the English at that day.3 They came to reproduce, as far as circum stances would permit, their English life. They recognized class distinctions and first set about erecting colleges for the training of the aristocracy for the Church and the State.
