Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Selected Writings of James Hardy Dillard These twenty odd papers have been garnered from magazines, school journals and other periodicals in which they appeared - some within the last year or two and others ten to twenty years ago. Many of them have been reprinted - some of them over and over again. For the first time they are assembled here under one cover. Read one after another these pieces draw a clear outline of the better education as the writer sees it. To him it is a simple matter of the personal contact between teacher and learner - between a man who has vision and scholarship and a boy learning to see and know - with the corollary that when there is no vision the pupils perish. While these papers cover a wide range of subjects there are veins of thought and feeling that run through them all, like threads of silk weaving figures in a fabric. The persuasive appeal for genuineness in contrast with bluff and sham and shoddiness - for accuracy and thoroughness instead of slovenly work and cheap credits - for love of learning itself and not the robes and titles of the learned - for all that is fine in men and books and music and art and conduct - in one way or another this note is sounded in all these papers. It recurs like theme phrases in a symphony - ringing in one´s ears long after the players have gone. Emerson writing about William Pell said that anybody listening to Pell in conversation or hearing him plead a cause in parliament would come away with the feeling that there was something finer in the man himself than any thing he had spoken. And by the same token one reads this sequence of pieces and comes to feel that the spirit speaking in them all - the undertone one hears from first to last - is something finer than any single note apart.
