de L'Education Des Enfans (1708)

Focusing on the education of children, John Locke emphasizes the roles of parents and teachers in shaping responsible adults. He discusses various aspects of learning, including language acquisition, morality, religion, discipline, and the development of critical thinking. Locke's concept of the child as a blank slate suggests that education should be tailored to individual personalities and needs. His ideas have significantly influenced modern educational practices and remain relevant in contemporary discussions about child development.
