Bücher von Helen May

This book considers the diffusion and transfer of educational ideas through local and transcontinental networks within and across five socio-political spaces.

Examining the experiences of very young 'native' children in three British colonies, the authors focus on the shared as well as unique aspects of the colonial experience in infant schools across the northern part of the North Island of New Zealand, Upper Canada, and British-controlled India. Informed by archival research.
