【专栏】点评《卡尔维特的教育》（1）

不颜草

不知道楼主对《卡尔威特的教育》看了多少遍？（光明日报版的）

但是从楼主写下的文字可以看出，没有吃透《教育》里的一些思想，或者有断章取义之嫌。老卡尔威特确实不太赞成孩子太小的时候与他人玩耍。但有两点：
1、不赞成孩子过早的社会化并不代表不赞成孩子玩耍。相反，老卡尔威特为了培养小卡尔的兴趣可谓是煞费苦心。卡尔每天的读书时间其实不超过1小时。而且我觉得孩子太早社会化（或在其世界观没有形成之前社会化很容易受到外界更多不良的影响。）


2、老卡尔并不是一直反对孩子交朋友，当孩子的世界观初步形成之后就可以教朋友了。那时虽然也会对孩子造成一些影响，但是不会是根本性的，并且是可以改正的。

我想这就是老卡尔的思想所在。而楼主则全盘否定了。

我也读过卡尔维特的教育，曾经也觉得很好，但现在不这样认为了。

搜索一下wiki，找到这样的叙述：
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl_Witte
Johann Heinrich Friedrich Karl Witte (born July 1, 1800 in Lochau; died March 6, 1883 in Halle) was a German jurist and Dante Alighieri scholar.

He was the son of a pastor Karl Heinrich Gottfried Witte who encouraged a fairly intense program of learning. When Karl Witte was nine, he spoke five languages.[1] On April 13, 1814, at the age of 12, he became a doctor of philosophy at the University of Giessen in Germany.[2] As a result, Witte was listed in The Guinness Book of World Records as the "youngest doctorate", a record that still stands.

His father wrote a book about educating his child.[3] This book attracted criticism and soon fell into oblivion in Germany, but in China, the book became a bestseller at beginning of the 21st century. Millions of Chinese hope that their children using Witten book to be a genius. The name "Karl Witte" is changed to "Carl Weter" when translated from Japanese.

In his own right be began his reputation as a Dante scholar in 1823.[4]

翻译（虽然很蹩脚，只要能大致明白意思就成）：

红字部分：该书在德国广受批评，很快被人遗忘。

蓝色部分：但在中国，此书于21世纪初成为畅销书。数百万中国人希望用威特一书，使他们的孩子成为天才。

难怪我搜索Carl Weter，搜不到英文信息

这本书在中国大受欢迎，是不是与我们的文化有关系呢？那位大虾指教一下。
