ADLER, FELIX (r851- )

This article appears in Volume V01, Page 194 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: ADA-AIZ
ADLER, FELIX (r851- ) , American educationalist, was born at
Alzey
 , Germany, on the 13th of August 1851. His father, a Jewish
rabbi
 , emigrated to the United States in 1857, and the son graduated at Columbia College in 187o. After completing his studies at Berlin and Heidelberg, he became, in 1894, professor of Hebrew and Oriental Literature at Cornell University. In 1876 he established in New
York
  City the Society for Ethical Culture, to the development and extension of which he devoted a great deal of time and energy, and before which he delivered a regular Sunday lecture. In 1902 he became professor of political and social ethics at Columbia University. He also acted as one of the editors of the International Journal of Ethics. Under his direction the Society for Ethical Culture became an important factor in educational reform in New
York
  City, exercising through its technical training school and kindergarten (established in January 1878) a wide influence. Dr Adler also took a prominent part in philanthropic and social reform movements, such as the
establishment
  of a system of
district
  nursing, the erection of model tenement houses, and tenement house reform. He published Creed and Deed (1877), The Moral Instruction of Children (1892), Life and Destiny (1903),
Marriage
  and Divorce (1905), and The Religion of Duty (1905).
