  • Jan Amos Comenius a Brief Bio on the "Father" of Modern Education
    Jan Amos Comenius A brief bio on the "Father" of modern education. Some brief Notes on Jan Amos Comenius By Dr. C. Matthew McMahon Have you ever heard of Jan Amos Comenius? Do not be too overwhelmed with grief if you have not. In our day, most of the world has not heard of him. Regardless of your denominational distinction, Comenius is someone Christians should become familiar with. He wrote over 154 books in his lifetime, even after all of his original manuscripts were burned during a rebellion in Holland. He was an amazing and prolific educator, and has been stamped The Father of Modern Education. Born March 28, 15 92, orphaned early, educated at the universities of Herborn and Heidelberg, Comenius began working as a pastor and parochial school principal in 1618, the year the Thirty Years war began. After the defeat of the Protestant armies in the Battle of White Mountain one of the most disastrous events in Czech historyhe barely escaped with his life while enemy soldiers burned down his house. Later, his young wife and two small children died of the plague. For seven years he lived the life of a fugitive in his own land, hiding in deserted huts, in caves, even in hollow trees. Early in 1628 he joined one of the small groups of Protestants who fled their native Moravia to await better times in neighboring Poland. He never saw his homeland again. For 42 years of his long and sorrowful life he roamed the countries of Europe as a homeless refugee. He was always poor.

Through out centuries a lot of theories about the learning and teaching of lan- guages have been proposed. John Amos Comenius has become one of the major influences on modern educational thinking, with his personality, philosophical and educational writing. The guiding ideas of Comenius’ system and their true signifi- cance are difficult to appreciate fully without some prior knowledge of his life. Comenius’ life and work are as closely interwoven as his ideas on world brother- hood and his religious precepts are inseparable from his educational reforms.

  • John Blahoslav, "Father and Charioteer of the Lord's People in the Unitas Fratrum"
    John Blahoslav, "Father and Charioteer of the Lord's People in the Unitas Fratrum" MILOS STRUPL Brief was the span of life which the Lord had allotted to Brother John Blahoslav. When he, "of the topmost four", one of the bishops of his communion, died on the twenty-fourth day of November 1571, while on a visit near Moravsky Krumlov, he had not yet reached his forty- ninth year. "All too soon, according to our judgment", sighed Lawrence Orlik, Blahoslav's faithful co-worker, as he was recording the death of his superior in the Necrology of the Unitas Fratrum, "it pleased the Lord to take him away; he himself knows for what reason. Mysterious divine judgments!" 1 And yet, its brevity notwithstanding, it had been a full life, crowded with the most diversified activities in the service of his beloved Unitas. For Blahoslav was indeed - quoting once more from Orlik's Necrology - "a great and outstanding man, whose fame, having been carried far and wide, excelled among other nations, a great and precious jewel of the Unitas".2 In this glowing appraisal Orlik did not remain alone. Others have voiced similar opinions. To mention just one, a modern historian, Vaclav Novotny, referred to Blahoslav as "one of the noblest spirits of his time, one of the most learned of his contemporaries, and therefore one of the most celebrated sons of his nation".3 No one will seriously question that in the history of the Unitas Fratrum Blahoslav holds a truly pivotal position. His importance must be judged in comparison with that of Brother Lucas of Prague, "the second founder of the Unitas", and that of John Amos Comenius, its last great spiritual leader and a man of undeniable international stature.

J A N A M O S C O M E N I U S1 (1592-1670) Jean Piaget Nothing is easier, or more dangerous, than to treat an author of 300 years ago as modern and claim to find in him the origins of contemporary or recent trends of thought. A typical example of the difficulties this kind of interpretation meets with is the controversy about the significance of Francis Bacon’s work (and the example is of particular interest here, since Bacon, as we know, was one of Comenius’ sources of inspiration and was frequently quoted by him). Some authorities hold Bacon to be one of the precursors of modern experimental science; others find in his empiricism the whole residue of pre-scientific ways of thinking and emphasize how, as a theorist, he missed contact with the real science of his time, that of Galileo. Comenius could likewise be represented either as a precursor of evolutionary theory, genetic psychology, teaching methods based on child psychology, functional education and international education; or as a metaphysician who had no idea of the requirements of experimental psychological or even educational research, and who substituted the discussion of ideas for the analysis of facts. Yet all these extreme judgements would be incorrect. The real problem is to find in Comenius’ writings—our knowledge of which has been so much enriched by the discoveries of the group now working at the Comenius Institute in Prague—not what is comparable with modern trends, to the neglect of the rest, but what makes the vital unity of the thinking of the great Czech specialist in theory and practice; and to compare this with what we know and want today.

While various basic monographs and studies were published at the time, his biography still contained a lot of uncertainties and the list of his works was incomplete. In addition to histori- ans, some teachers who admired Comenius engaged in searching for new facts that would con- tribute to answering some issuable questions. One of them was František Slaměník, the founder of the oldest Comenius Museum. This paper focuses in detail on Slaměník’s reports from his private travels abroad to places linked to Comenius’ life. Slaměník’s texts are interesting evi- dence of comeniological discourse in the Czech lands at the last quater of 19th century with overlap to the beginning of 20th century. Keywords: John Amos Comenius, František Slaměník, comeniology, traveling, Naarden, Leszno Introduction The origin of comeniology as a scientific discipline in the second half of the 19th century in the Czech environment is closely linked to the activities of patriotic teachers and the teacher movement, as they pressed for the so- called Czech school in the Austrian monarchy.
