Description: Knowledge and interest in psychology developed rapidly in western Europe and the United States at the turn of the twentieth century. Psychological studies and literature influenced many aspects of thought, including education. The History of Education: Psychology, derived from Primary Source Media's History of Education, offers insights into the ways in which psychological research influenced educators' approach to understanding the process of learning. The collection offers works in the German language, reflecting the enormous contribution to educational philosophy of the German scholars of the nineteenth century; works in English and Romance languages also appear. Major scholars such as Johann Friedrich Herbart are represented alongside lesser-known educators. Titles in The History of Education: Psychology span the period from the late nineteenth century to 1917 and provide some of the framework for modern research and theories.
Notes: Date range of documents: 1800-1920.
