Sobre IBD

Edmond Gore Alexander Holmes (1850-1936) was an educationalist, writer and poet. Holmes was born in Moycashel, County Westmeath, Ireland. His The Creed of the Buddha (1908) is well known; he also wrote a pantheist text All is One: A Plea for a Higher Pantheism. He was also a schools inspector, rising to become chief inspector for elementary schools in 1905. He resigned in 1911, over a confidential memorandum criticising school inspectors who had formerly been elementary school teachers. This angered the teachers’ union and it led to the downfall of Robert Morant the permanent secretary to the Board of Education when it became public.
