The Snedden-Farnsworth Exchanges of 1917 and 1918 on the Value of Music and Art in Education.
Lee, William R.
Journal of Research in Music Education, v31 n3 p203-13 Fall 1983
In 1917 and 1918 Charles Hubert Farnsworth, a music educator, and David Snedden, a critic and educational theorist, exchanged views on the social and educational roles of art and music. Their divergent positions are explained in light of Farnsworth's interest in philosophy and Snedden's schooling in Spencerian and Darwinian thought. (Author/IS)
