Education in the Christian Roman Empire: Christian and Pagan Theories under Cons

From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of the ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Slightly bumped, stains on staples, author's name underlined on cover, stamp on back cover, otherwise clean. - From the text: Ever since the days of Socrates and Plato, at least some statesmen have been very much aware of the role of education in the preparation of men for their duties in the state as well as in private life. Modern educational problems, which will affect the welfare of the state, are only too familiar; and we know that similar problems existed in antiquity. A characteristic understanding of what was involved appears in the brief treatise on educating children written by St John Chrysostom, in the latter part of the fourth century.
