Excerpt from Furtenschulen in Germany After the Reformation
The advent of the Reformation brought with it many new conceptions. Some of the most important dealt with the problem of education, its necessity for all citizens, and the duty of the state, principality, or city to provide educational facilities for all of its members.
Among the firmly established educational institutions, which clearly bear the impress of the Reformation"s influence, were the Furstenschulen. These were first founded in Saxony, but were modelled on earlier Klosterschulen in Wurttemberg. From a study of either of these types the student may gain a knowledge of the practical influence of the Reformation, which was working towards the establishment of a state system of public education.
This monograph is prepared as collateral reading for students of the history of education, for the reason that the subject is only briefly presented in text books.
I am indebted to my colleagues, Professors Frank P. Graves and John H. Minnick, for helpful suggestions.
