Features: The "Education of Carl Witte" published by our press has been a bestseller in the book market. To this end, our press has introduced this sequel, "The Education of Carl Witte." The book is written by young Carl Witte, the son of Mr. Carl Witte, and has been in Europe, America, and around the world for nearly two centuries since its publication, becoming a must-read for many educators and parents. In Germany, it was even revered as the charter of early education, and in the United States, it was reprinted 45 times in the 19th century. Despite the profound influence of Mr. Witte's educational philosophy today, it was largely unknown in his time. His book was nearly out of print shortly after its publication, and his methods were largely ignored. Therefore, partly to honor his father and partly to give his father a voice, young Carl Witte finally decided to write another book years after his father's death, documenting the education he had received. Objectively speaking, Carl Witte is the best person to interpret Mr. Witte's educational philosophy. He is not only a personal experience and beneficiary but also a highly educated scholar. In this book, he applies his scholar's rigorous research methods to classify, summarize, and synthesize his father's educational philosophy. Of course, he also objectively and fairly criticizes the shortcomings in his father's educational philosophy and methods. He also made an innovative contribution by filling in the details of his education after the age of 14. So, if there are still certain defects in "The Education of Carl Witte," this book serves as a comprehensive supplement to it; if Mr. Witte's educational philosophy has shortcomings or one-sidedness due to the limitations of the era, then as a scholar, Dr. Witte is their corrector. Moreover, as a firsthand witness, he can provide many original materials and vivid examples. For instance, he quotes a large number of his father's parenting diaries and letters in the book, which are extremely valuable resources, allowing us to understand and study Mr. Witte's educational philosophy more comprehensively and deeply.
