Principles of Education in the Works of G.K. Chesterton

The purpose of this thesis is to analyze Gilbert Keith Chesterton's ideas on education and thereby show his view of modern educational philosophy and practices in many of our schools. After a brief description of the life and character of Chesterton, the writer intends to set forth the philosophy and practices of modern education, followed by Chesterton's unsympathetic attitude toward that philosophy and practice as gleaned from his writings. Finally, the writer aims to show the harmonious relation between Catholic philosophy and Chestertonian thought, concluding the study with a chapter on America's need for Chesterton.
