Thesis (Ph.D.)--Boston College, 1987.

Education rarely is mentioned when the influences of the American Revolution are specified, and it thus is underrated as a determinant of the resulting society's continued success. For this problem to be relieved, the printed textbooks that the colonial Americans imbibed must be noted and understood, for these were the embodiment of colonial American education.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a Education rarely is mentioned when the influences of the American Revolution are specified, and it thus is underrated as a determinant of the resulting society's continued success. For this problem to be relieved, the printed textbooks that the colonial Americans imbibed must be noted and understood, for these were the embodiment of colonial American education.
520 $a Its wilderness conditions and its people's unique diversity and dissonance made colonial America the best proving ground for the theory of pansophism, or universal education, that John Amos Comenius advanced throughout the seventeenth century. His encyclopedic, multilingual "class books" made all literature more usable while suggesting English imitations that would be popular enough with the colonials to give them common memories and sentiments.
520 $a This availability of realistic literature, together with other stimuli, encouraged the organization of schools and provided for the schools of each type to succeed. Even the dame schools used some didactic literature, and the remainder depended consistently upon printed textbooks for their courses' content and method. Such textbooks also provided instruction in those matters of development that the schools excluded; and with most users, they served as the schools' substitutes. As exemplars like Benjamin Franklin, Benjamin Bannecker, George Washington, and Phyllis Wheatley would attest, independent study was a colonial custom.
520 $a If supplied entirely by imports, this appetite would have impoverished and subverted the colonials, but a resourceful domestic textbook industry rapidly Americanized the supply. Initiating the innovations that the American conditions required, it also made the textbook a major item of trade. Its Indian textbooks were authorized exports that generally rejuvenated the New England economy.
520 $a Finally served by a network of distributors that included career booksellers, teachers, chapmen, and waggoners, along with several libraries and book missions, the colonial public was assured some study of independence-minded textbooks within every group.
520 $a This analysis is informed by the candidate's preliminary compilation of the catalog that the title reflects. Having 47 categories, the catalog offers 3,020 annotated, core entries and 656 unannotated, tentative ones. Its Archetype constitutes Appendix II.
