In the history of European education the 17th century belong peculiarly to France. This volume deals with an educational experiment of much significance and interest at Saint-Cyr. Saint-Cyr in its revised constitution was a convent, although it avoided the restricted outlook of the contemporary conventual school. The spirit of Saint-Cyr was indebted to its foundress, Mme. de Maintenon, who was to the end of her days the controlling influence there, and she left an indelible mark on every department of its life and work. To study Saint-Cyr, therefore, is to study Mme. de Maintenon herself. Red cloth boards with gilt to spine and very slight fading to top and bottom edges of boards. Contents clean. Dust-jacket is in a loose protective cover. A nice copy of a scarce title in Very Good+ condition in a Very Good++ dust-jacket. .
