让孩子知道一些他们来到这世界之前就已经发生的事情;带孩子走出以自我为中心、封闭在家的生活,这种生活显得过于重要,因为太贴近,就成为孩子们眼中的一切,使他们看不到外面的世界;开阔孩子的眼界,拓宽他们的视野,将过去时代的历史画面展现在他们面前;让他们熟悉历史上一些重大事件和伟人的名字,并把这些事和人在时间和空间上确定下来,作为将来系统学习的基础;向孩子提供一份历史编年档案,并附有要览,这样他们今后学习历史就可以参照这份档案。以上所述就是写这第一本世界历史故事的宗旨。——维吉尔·M·希利尔(卡尔佛特首任校长,本书作者)To give the child some idea of what has gone on in the world before he arrived;To take him out of his little self-centered, shut-in life, which looms so large because it is so close to his eyes;To extend his horizon, broaden his view, and open up the visits down the ages past;To acquaint him with some of the big events and great names and fix these in time and space as a basis for detailed study in the future;To give him a chronological file with main guides, into which he can fit in its proper place all his further historical study—Is the purpose of this first SURVEY OF THE WORLD’S HISTORY.
