PART A: In paragraph 9 of “On the Education of Youth in America,” how does the quotation, “The constitutions are republican, and the laws of education are monarchical” reinforce Webster’s point of view on education?
The author wants to highlight a very important point of view that the former helps in extension of civil rights to every righteous businessman; while the latter creates disparity among the general population by denying them many privileges.
These privileges are the birthright of any citizen.
Republican form of government or constitution is different from direct democracy, as it disapproves the rule of elite class on the political system of the country.
The author thinks this way of education is an error being performed by the government and it needs to be corrected.
He wants education to be universally diffused equally.
