Abstract

The Vitalizing of Education
Horwill, Herbert W. | February 6, 1924 issue

add to cart   close window

This article focuses on the books "Sidney Ball: Memories and Impressions of an Ideal Don," arranged by Oona Howard Ball and "The Story of a Great Schoolmaster," by H. G. Wells. It was the possibility of a religious revival that concerned the great preacher, but the same question has been pertinently asked with respect to the national service rendered by the university as a place of higher education in general. Nothing short of a miracle, it has seemed to many, would avail to emancipate Oxford from deadening conservatism and bring her into vital contact with the progressive movements of the new time.
