First published in 1844, these two volumes present a collection of letters by Thomas Arnold (1795–1842), Head of Rugby School and Professor of History at Oxford, interspersed with a biographical commentary by the author. Volume 1 covers his time at Rugby and Volume 2, his controversial final year at Oxford.
Head of Rugby School for over a decade, Thomas Arnold (1795–1842) became Regius Professor of Modern History at Oxford in the final year of his life. Known for his controversial ideas on schooling and religion, he was a prominent and influential figure in the history of British education. First published in 1844, this two-volume work presents a diverse collection of Arnold's correspondence, compiled by his friend and former pupil Arthur Penrhyn Stanley (1815–81), Dean of Westminster. Interspersed with biographical commentary by Stanley, the letters in Volume 1 illuminate Arnold's early life and work, and his career at Rugby up to 1835. Volume 2 illustrates Arnold's theological position through his correspondence with various church figures. Offering insights into the role of school and church in the early nineteenth century, Arnold's writings continue to interest scholars of both religion and education.
