| Summary: |
With the manual for moral instruction by Esteban Echeverría the Pu-
blications Department of the University of Buenos Aires Law School initiates its Collection of Classic Works. This work, addressed to primary schools of the Eastern State, was published for the first time in Montevideo in 1846. Echeverría considers that a reform aimed at improving primary education requires to be focused on two kinds of remedies: on
one hand, the teaching methods and, on the other hand, the moral education. The first one consists of finding the method which results in the fastest education of the child. The second one constitutes the central subject of the work and therefore is extensively developed. Moral education must prepare citizens in order to raise awareness of their own duties towards themselves, the fellow, the family, the mother country and the humanity, thus leading them to moral perfection. This work seeks the inspiring principles of our social creed in the tradition of the May Revolution. These principles are primarily directed towards a double purpose: emancipation and organization. According to Echeverría, this objective can only be obtained in Democracy which is a symbol of the May Revolution and of our social creed |
