Progetto filosofico di una completa riforma del culto e dell'educazione politico-morale del popolo ebreo, Tomo II
"Progetto Filosofico Di una completa riforma del Culto e dell'Educazione Politico-Morale del Popolo Ebreo" by A. Fernando is a philosophical treatise written in the late 18th to early 19th century. The work addresses the moral education of Jewish children, critiquing their upbringing within a framework of superstitions, ignorance, and neglect. It likely aims to outline a comprehensive reformation of both educational practices and religious observances in order to enhance the moral and intellectual development of the Jewish community. The opening of the treatise delves into the concept of moral education, emphasizing how harmful customs and traditions have been passed down through generations. The author argues that the minds of children are like soft wax, easily molded by the influences of their early environment. He critiques the corrupting influences of poorly educated guardians and the inadequate educational systems imparting uninformed religious practices. According to Fernando, this leads to a detrimental cycle of ignorance that affects not only the children but also future generations, perpetuating a state of moral deficiency within the Jewish people.
