Remarks On Clerical Education (1831)

Henry Raikes

Remarks On Clerical Education is a book written by Henry Raikes in 1831. The book is a critical analysis of the education system for clergymen during the early 19th century. Raikes argues that the education provided to clergymen at the time was inadequate and did not prepare them adequately for their pastoral duties.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of clerical education. Raikes discusses the importance of a thorough education in theology, as well as the need for practical training in pastoral care. He also critiques the prevalent practice of sending young men to university without any prior theological education.In addition to his critique of the education system, Raikes also provides recommendations for improving clerical education. He suggests that students should be given more practical experience in pastoral care, and that the curriculum should be expanded to include a wider range of subjects.Overall, Remarks On Clerical Education is an insightful and thought-provoking analysis of the education system for clergymen during the early 19th century. It remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of religious education.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
