Abstract
The practice of education in seventeenth-century France was in large measure the implementation in an organized way of sixteenth-century educational thought. Rabelais, Erasmus, Budé, Vives, Montaigne, Ramus, and many other humanists in France and elsewhere, marked the beginning of the age of the great educational theoreticians.1 Their works helped sixteenth-century man, newly conscious of his cultural heritage, to preserve it and pass it on to coming generations.
