Prussian Schoolteachers: Profession and Office, 1763-1848

By Anthony J. Lavopa and Anthony J. La Vopa

In analyzing the social and professional struggles of Prussian elementary schoolteachers from the time of Frederick the Great to the end of 1848, La Vopa focuses on the first generation of trained teachers and their emancipation movement in the Revolution of 1848. This case history explores the subjective experience of social mobility, the emergence of corporate solidarity, and the relationship between professional aspirations and ideological commitment.Originally published in 1980.A UNC Press Enduring Edition -- UNC Press Enduring Editions use the latest in digital technology to make available again books from our distinguished backlist that were previously out of print.
