Synopsis
Excerpt from Ohio University Bulletin, Vol. 1: November, 1903
Uncivilized Child. - Thirty-three hours' credit. The child among uncivilized and Semi-civilized peoples is studied under the various conditions as he is found among such peoples. Two main ends are sought for in this study. In the first place it is tried to discover in what particulars the savage child and the 'civilized child are in common, so as to see what are the things that belong to a child in his more natural state. In the second place it is sought to learn what customs, now existing, among uncivilized peo' ples in reference to the child, may be survivals of those formed about the child when civilized man was not in his high state as now.
