Excerpt from Selections in Poetical and Prose Literature: For Third Class Teachers' Examination 1902-1903The annotations to this volume of selections are as brief as. Possible. It is felt that good literature within the compass of a student's comprehension should largely teach itself, and that 'very little information in the form of notes is required. Only such information is given as is necessary to an understanding of the text.The selections are supposed to be studied as literature. They are not intended to serve as the basis for grammatical analysis.The order of study is not necessarily that suggested by the table of contents. There 1s a time suitable to the study of each selection, and such time should be chosen.The teacher should be considered simply as a medium between the student and the author. As such, he should be in perfect sympathy with each selection, and re¿ect its spirit in his voice, look and manner, he should be in perfect sympathy with his students to such a degree that they are pleased to follow him and anxious to enter with him into new fields of thought.The suggestive questions following the notes to the poetical selections are not intended to be exhaustive, nor is it supposed that students will accept. Them as a guide to study. They will be useful in so far as they lead to a closer understanding or clearer appreciation of the thought and expression, or as they give power to distinguish between the worthy and the unworthy in poetical efforts.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
