Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from School Administration in Large Cities; The Legal Status of the Public Schools: Addresses Delivered Before the New York State Teachers´ Association, Academy of Music, Brooklyn, N. Y., July 3, 1889, and Then National Educational Association, at Nashville, Tenn;, July 17, 1889 Mr. President and Ladies and Gentlemen: In his life of Ralph Waldo Emerson, Dr. Holmes tells us that during the last days of the philosopher and poet, when so feeble in body and mind that the light of life flickered in its socket and he was scarcely able to recognize friends or things about him, they walked together in the garden one bright summer morning. Mr. Emerson passed the glorious June roses in silence and apparently without observing them, until coming upon one more luxuriant in its perfume and beauty than all the rest, he stopped before it and, with the momentary return of the true poetic spirit and impulse, removed his hat in chivalric fashion, saying, "I feel that I must take off my hat to it." During these late commencement days I have been passing through the most charming scenes of all the year. I fear, however, that I look upon them in a more mechanical way than I once did. The audiences are certainly as large and as radiant as ever; the general interest in commencements can never abate. The June roses have been so grandly luxuriant and so plentiful that I have feared I was losing my power to appreciate them. The essays and orations, always wise, have probably been even more deep and dense in their wisdom this year than ever. What Tennyson styles "the sweet girl graduate" has presumably budded and bloomed more sweetly and gloriously than ever; but I confess she does not arouse the same feelings in my bosom she did twenty years ago.
