Baker is a collection of educational essays and addresses written in the late 19th to early 20th century. This work delves into various dimensions of education, arguing for the integration of ideals and practical applications that address contemporary societal needs. The themes encompass a historical overview of educational philosophies, particularly referencing influential figures like Plato, and advocate for a balanced approach to education that merges classical thought with modern educational practices. The opening of this text features an introductory preface explaining the structure and intent behind Baker’s essays. It establishes the overarching theme that education should not merely serve ideals but also engage closely with the realities and challenges of contemporary life, especially in fostering responsible citizenship. Baker emphasizes the historical relevance of education by reflecting on the contributions of ancient civilizations and their enduring impact on modern society. He outlines his approach to selecting studies that prioritize both knowledge and character development, suggesting the need for reform in education systems to shorten the educational timeline while addressing the evolving demands of society.
