Philosophy of Teaching

Saint, Bishop of Hippo Augustine

Saint Augustine's 'Philosophy of Teaching', originally titled 'De Magistro', was written around A.D. 389. This work explores the symbolism of language and the methods of teaching, reflecting Augustine's thoughts on education and learning after his conversion to Christianity. The translation aims to provide English readers with insights into the contributions of Christian thinkers to educational philosophy, countering misconceptions about their role in the history of education.
