Excerpt from Principles and Method in the Study of English Literature

I trust that the book may prove helpful not only to teachers, but to readers generally who seek guidance in the study of English Literature.

I desire to express my obligations to the Editor of The Journal of Education, who has kindly permitted me to make use of these two articles contributed by me to his columns: The Psychologic Basis of Literary Study in Schools (the Journal of Education, No. 441, Vol. The Place of Lyric Poetry in the Teaching of English Literature (id., No. 442, Vol.

Excerpt from Principles and Method in the Study of English Literature

These chapters are written primarily from a teacher's point of view. I have here attempted to state the logical and psychological principles that underlie the study of English Literature, and to illustrate methods of teaching that follow naturally from them. The essay is written with special reference to the mental growth and requirements of pupils in secondary schools; but in so far as the methods indicated are logically based upon the fundamental nature of the subject-matter taught, they are capable of being applied, in their essence, to the teaching of English Literature at all stages: I therefore venture to hope that the essay may be of interest to teachers of every grade. No attempt has been made to deal with the study of English as a whole : principles and method are described in their application only to the reading of authors. From an immediately practical standpoint, my chief aim has been to show how English Literature, as it appears in the works of our best writers, may be effectively studied and rightly appreciated.
