Excerpt from The Princeton Review, Vol. 59: July-December, 1883
Our readers will have inferred that the writer does not ac ~cept the position of Mr. Adams, that Greek should not be re quired in a classical education, much less that the attachment to Greek is a blind and superstitious devotion to a fetich, as Mr. Adams bravely but with a somewhat ambitious Quixotism affirms. We do not, however, affirm that the place of Greek in a clas sical curriculum or a liberal education is beyond discussion or dispute. There are not a few eminent educators, who are also eminent scholars and teachers of Greek, who hold with Mr Adams that'for various reasons Greek should be abandoned as a study invariably required, and should be relegated to the class of special or elective studies, while Latin is retained as one of the studies required for the Bachelor's degree. It is in View of these facts and of the general unsettledness of the public mind in regard to this question that we offer a few critical remarks upon the discourse of Mr. Adams, not confining ourselves to the discussion of the central question which we have indicated, but taking the liberty to comment upon a few of the many lively remarks which make this discourse so unique and so interest ing. We make no apology because we need none for speaking freely of any position in a critical essay which is characterized by such untrammelled tho brilliant liberty of speech.
