Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Outline of German Romanticism This outline was prepared for the benefit of advanced students and those who teach advanced students. Suggested by unforgetable experience, it is the outgrowth of an impelling desire to enrich the efforts of those who give and to clarify the labors of those who receive. An attempt has been made to compile a textbook, a sort of literary almanac, that would cost but little in money and would save much time. Neither history nor prophecy can point to a century so abounding in spiritual phenomena as the one between 1766 and 1866, and the middle half of it is the richest. And the period from 1790 to 1815, the age of systematic Romanticism, admits of so many different methods of approach, that unless the master is able to eliminate the conventional, the scattered facts about which there is no dispute, the disciple will not be able to assimilate the essential, the meaning of the literature itself, about which there is so much discussion and on which, incidentally, the course is really supposed to be given. Data are as important in literature as in science; fancy always starts from facts. But when a teacher of literature is giving facts, he is giving what can be derived from many other sources, he is being unoriginal.
