Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Introduction to Poetry If English literature is really to take its place as a serious mental discipline, we must rid ourselves of the old limitations... One wants to teach children how to read, to help them to hear with trained ears the most perfect and melodious speech which the lips of men have ever uttered, and to appreciate at its right value an art which is no mere ornament, but an interpretation of the life of man... In literature-teaching, as at present conducted, no such bridge [between the School and University] has been built, and the need of it has hardly been perceived in this country. At no stage is the learner helped to look for the large conclusion, or to think out for himself the idea underlying the facts." I shall, perhaps, be pardoned this long quotation from myself if I add that the present little book is, as far as I know, the first attempt on this side of the Atlantic to supply the need that is pointed out.
