Publisher's Synopsis

English Works: Toxophilus; Report Of The Affairs And State Of Germany; The Scholemaster is a collection of three works by the English writer and scholar Roger Ascham. The first work, Toxophilus, is a treatise on the art of archery, written in the form of a dialogue between two characters. The second work, Report Of The Affairs And State Of Germany, is a political treatise in which Ascham provides his observations on the political and social conditions in Germany during his time there as an ambassador. The third work, The Scholemaster, is a guide to education, in which Ascham outlines his views on the best methods of teaching and learning. The book is an important work of English literature and offers valuable insights into the social and political conditions of the era, as well as the educational philosophy of one of the most influential scholars of the Renaissance period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
