Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from English Literature Teaching in Schools: Two Lectures With Examples If we were to inquire, in any hundred English schools taken at random, whether Literature formed a part of the regular school course, I think we should get positive, very positive, answers in the affirmative from at least ninety-nine. And yet I am prepared to maintain that at least ninety-eight of the ninety-nine answers would be wrong. There are hardly any schools in England, in which Literature, used as literature forms any part of the regular education. Works in many languages, by many famous writers - in Latin, in Greek, in French, in German, and frequently in English - are indeed employed in almost every school above the rank of an infant school. But employed how? As lay-figures for lessons in vocabulary, in construction, in philology, in antiquarianism, and all the rest of old Dryasdust´s pet subjects; but as lessons in thought and imagination, in the art of expression, in the beauty and power of speech, never, or very nearly never.
