Zespolenie idei narodowej, odrodzenia religijnego z pracą społeczną dla rozwoju rodzimej koncepcji wczesnej edukacji

Abstract

The Polish conception of early childhood education was understood to be part of a larger whole, including the relationship between the state of society, its socio-cultural and political situation, its moral and mental concepts, the educational ideal and contemporary pedagogical theory and practice. Its constituent elements were used to achieve specific goals, and they were combined into a coherent and dynamic pedagogical system. Eventually such a system was created thanks to the cooperation of such great personalities as August Cieszkowski (1814-1894), Edmund Bojanowski (1814-1871), Jan Koźmian (1814-1877) and the priest, Piotr Semenenko (1814-1886). A characteristic feature of their contribution to the development of native foundations of theory and practice of early education in the concept of rural orphanages is the fusion of the national idea and religious revival with social work.
