Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from John Wilson´s Prose Style: An Undergraduate Thesis The wisdom of printing a undergraduate essay upon the prose of an intellectual giant like Christopher North may not unnaturally be called in question by literary adepts, and the only defence that can be pleaded must either be drawn from custom or sanctioned by a reasonable hope; in other words, must appeal to the past or point confidently to the future. If the theatre of observation be confined to America, it must be admitted that the past is not eloquent in favor of such a proceeding. Here, therefore, it will be necessary to attach credit to those unmistakable signs which herald innovation, and to contemporary events like the issue of the "Johns Hopkins Studies in Historical and Political Science." In Germany it has long been the rule that dissertations shall be published, and these dissertations are essentially theses for graduation. It would be easy to show that they are the product of the seminaries which are connected with the various departments of the German universities, and that these seminaries, conversely, are the nurseries of original investigation.
