Book excerpt: Excerpt from Education in a Prussian Town This brochure reproduces a paper which was read last winter before the Dublin Education Society and the phraseology in some respects, I fear, bears traces of its oral origin. In itself, the paper can hardly be regarded as worthy of print; but the quotations from British and German authorities, with which I have fortified and illustrated my own observations, may per haps confer on it a vicarious usefulness. It is an attempt to picture the education in a typical German town. We have in English many treatises on German education*; but the only detailed study of any city, so far as I know, is the excellent report of Mr. Andrew *on the Elementary Schools of Berlin and Char lottenburg. But the educational equipment of a capital city is necessarily sui generis. Wiesbaden, on the other hand, may I think be regarded as educationally typical.
