The Classical Controversy is a book written by Alexander Bain that explores the debate surrounding the study of classical literature in the 19th century. The book examines the arguments for and against the study of the classics, including their relevance to modern society, their educational value, and the role they play in shaping cultural identity. Bain presents a comprehensive overview of the controversy, drawing on the writings of key figures such as John Stuart Mill, Thomas Carlyle, and Matthew Arnold. He also provides his own analysis of the issue, arguing that the classics have enduring value and should continue to be studied in schools and universities. The Classical Controversy is a thought-provoking and insightful work that sheds light on a significant debate in the history of education.THIS 30 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Practical Essays, by Alexander Bain.
