Gabriel Compayri Livres

Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

"Without any question," Americans say, "the noblest figure in the history of education in our country is that of Horace Mann." It is his biography which is offered here. Gabriel Compayre is the author of History of Pedagogy, Montaigne and the Education of the Judgment, Peter Abelard and the Rise of the Modern Universities, and Jean Jacques Rousseau and Education from Nature.
