Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Primer of English and American Literature This book has been prepared with special reference to deaf children, in the hope that it will be useful in opening to them a glimpse of the wealth and beauty of thought embodied in our English tongue. I have endeavored to give the subject an historical setting in order that the successive stages of growth and the relation of the past and present conditions of our literature to one another may be seen. Exception will perhaps be taken to certain features of the book, such as, for instance, the nature of some of the selections from different authors. "What," it may be asked, "have the deaf to do with poetry?" Well, in the first place, among those likely to use this book there will be a proportion of semi-mutes, for whom the poetry here given will have no difficulty at all; and, further, a careful choice has been made of poems in which the thought is so clearly and simply expressed that the average pupil can understand and enjoy them.
