Excerpt from The Theory of Education in the Republic of Plato Some apology may seem to be due for printing an essay upon a subject so well worn as the Platonic conception of education, the more so as I have no new discoveries to detail and no new theories to advance.

All that I have here attempted is to draw renewed attention to some of the salient and familiar points in a subject which concerns us all, and to suggest re ection upon our own corresponding theory and practice.
