Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from What and How to Read: A Guide to Recent English Literature, Containing a Minutely Classified List of the Best Books Published in England and America During the Past Five Years, With Critical Remarks and Suggestions, and an Introduction It is impossible to say any thing absolutely new on the use of books for self-culture. Even the epistolary treatises on the advantages of literature, written by Egyptian scribes two or three thousand years before the compilation of the First Book of Moses, contain, in general terms, the best that can be said now. However, there is always somebody still in his A B C´s on some subject or other, and there will be some one also to whom a few words on What and How to Read are welcome advice. We have, fortunately, arrived at an age when book-making and reading is an absolute necessity. Every little addition to the sum of human knowledge is scattered broadcast, and every branch of science is made the subject of multifarious expositions, adapted for every variety of intellect. To show a supercilious disrespect for the daily increasing multitude of books is not to affect superior wisdom, but to display some degree of ignorance. The times are past when it sufficed to sit for a while at the feet of a wise man in order to hear all that was known.
