This volume comprises two editions of Edward John C. Morton’s introductory address to his course of twelve lectures on astronomy, delivered as part of a University Extension Scheme. It also includes syllabi for lectures 1-8, 10, and 11. The work offers insight into the content and structure of astronomy courses offered through university extension programs in the late 19th century, a movement aimed at providing educational opportunities to adults outside of traditional university settings.Presented here are Morton’s aims, methods, and expectations for his students, along with detailed outlines of the topics covered in each lecture. This resource is valuable for those interested in the history of science education, particularly the development of astronomy as a subject for adult learners. The inclusion of syllabi provides a snapshot of the scientific knowledge considered essential at the time, and highlights the pedagogical approaches used to convey complex concepts to a diverse audience.
