Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A General Survey of American Literature The following book on American literature has grown largely out of the author´s work in the class-room. There was no hurried daily flight from author to author, leaving upon the mind of the pupil a confused impression of dates, names, and lists of books; but a careful and prolonged attention was given to the author as a man and a thinker. In preparing for recitation, the pupil was encouraged as much as possible to find the author in his works and to grow familiar with his thoughts and feelings. He was asked to discuss important questions suggested by his literary and biographical research, and every effort was made to make the study not a memory drill, but a stimulus to thought and a source of wider culture. For this purpose, the meagre and uninteresting information of the text-books, confined merely to external details, was found wofully deficient, and material from every available source was collected to eke it out. To place this material within the reach of other students and to direct them to the intelligent study of American literature are ideas which have been continually before me in the preparation of this volume.
