Abstract

[The work of the teaching orders can be added to this list of the long and extensive involvement of the religious orders in the affairs of the world over the centuries. This chapter outlines some broad parameters within which such work took place. It opens with an account of the involvement of the Catholic Church in education from the early days of Christianity, with particular attention being given to the great expansion in the teaching orders and their work in the period from the early decades of the nineteenth century until the immediate years after the Second Vatican Council (1962–1965). The second part of the chapter sketches out developments in Catholic education and the presence of teaching brothers in the enterprise in the United States, England, Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand, which are the principal English-speaking countries in which the orders were active over the period 1891–1965.2 Finally, there is a broad outline of the origins of, and developments within, some of the major religious orders of teaching brothers.]
