Inhaltsangabe
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1900 edition. Excerpt: ... lectures, speeches, etc. It is a great mistake to listen to a Lecture or Speech without previous preparation, for in such a case it will be like sowing on ground that is not ready for the seed. A second great mistake is to write down every word which is said, and afterwards never to look at the notes again; this mistake is very common at Schools and at the Universities: I have many such note-books! Still further, it is a great mistake to write down the Ideas, or to listen to them without writing them down, and then never try to reproduce or apply them afterwards. The great difficulty and problem is this. If at a Lecture I write down what I hear, I shall not be able to attend properly; if I attend properly, I shall not be able to write down what I hear. The difficulty is solved if the Lecturer or Speaker, e.g. after the Lecture is over, presents his hearers with a Scheme or Syllabus of the subject-matter. But few are energetic enough to do this, and as a rule the listener has to do what he can, all by himself. The following piece of advice is most important. As with reading, so here, the subject must be worked out beforehand. What will the Lecturer say? how will he Arrange his ideas? what Illustrations and Contrasts will he use? how will he begin the Lecture, and how will he end it? The advantages of working this out beforehand are almost too obvious to need mention. When the Lecture comes, it will be of far greater interest to you; it will have given you a chance of working out the subject for yourself, that is to say, a chance of originality and selfactivity. And not only this, but the ground will have been prepared: you will have a smaller number of Ideas to pay attention to, and to absorb and assimilate. Your power of criticism will...
