Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Introductory Studies in German Literature The aim of the volume in hand is to awaken an interest in German literature, and to serve as a convenient basis for further work in this great subject. An analysis of literary masterpieces with some critical comments, and a short sketch of the respective authors seemed best fitted to bring about the desired result. The books consulted, histories of literature, bibliographies of authors, and translations of their works, are accessible in any well-stocked library, or can be easily procured. If these "Introductory Studies in German Literature" should induce students to systematically read in English translation the works of German poets, to study their lives in leading biographies, or to peruse more comprehensive works on German literature and life, this book has fulfilled its mission. Though presupposing no knowledge of German, the author would like to think of these studies as an incentive to acquire the language. The part of the introduction dealing with the sources of Luther´s language is based upon "Martin Luther in Sprache und Dichtung," by A. Freybe. I am especially indebted to him for the comparison of the earlier edition of Luther´s Bible of 1524, with the later of 1532, as illustrated by verses 25 and 26 of the 73d psalm.
