To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In considering the classical literatures we should always re- member that for a long time men in Europe and America studied them primarily for the ideas which they contained. It was new knowledge they sought in the pages of Greek and Roman authors, not mental gymnastics or lit- erary style. This movement had hardly spent its force when the new natural sciences appeared and began their claims for incorporation in the educa- tional system. Their day is now and they have greatly broadened the scop...e and range of our educational activities. Their chief aim is to define the constitution of things as they exist and show the method of their develop- ment. They lack the ethical element except as this is involved in the love and pursuit of truth. This has since been supplied by their application to the needs of man. Industrial education based on these sciences has its dominant interest in the bettering of human environment and in the future enlargement and refinement of human activities. The teaching of agricul- ture, or of any industrial art, under these conditions does not reach its highest level unless it embraces this ethical element.
