THE REVIVAL OF SECULAR EDUCATION The rapid sketch of the evolution of education in Europe, which I have given in the previous chapter, was necessary for the purpose of my study. We have to-day the spectacle of the secular powers, once more convinced of the civic and national benefit of education, slowly removing it again from its religious basis and from clerical control. Their aim is generally resisted by our ecclesiastical powers, and our educational problem is greatly complicated by this con...flict. It seems to me that one can take a more intelligent interest in the struggle when one realises that education was, originally, purely secular in Europe, and that the nineteenth century merely returned to an ideal that had once before been realised with conspicuous success. At all events, it must help us to know how education came to be grounded on a religious foundation. It was not from any conviction that it would be more morally effective, but because secular culture, which we now prize once more, was suffered to fall into contempt, and the sole use of written language was declared to be a religious one.
