Excerpt from Classic German Course in English
The present volume has an Object similar to that Of each volume preceding in the after-school series to which it belongs. It aims to enable readers knowing English, but not German, to acquire, through the medium of the former lan guage, some satisfactory acquaintance — acquaintance at once general and particular — with the chief classics Of German literature. The method proposed Of accomplishing this is — having first premised a rapid summary sketch and characterization of German literature 'as a whole — to select, with some Spar tan hardness Of heart, from among German authors no longer living, those generally acknowledged the best, and present these through translation, in specimens from one or more of their respective masterpieces — whether prose or verse accompanied with such comment, biographical, explanatory, critical, as may be judged desirable in order to securing the fairest and fullest final impression on the reader's mind, primarily, of the true characteristic individual quality of each author treated, and, secondarily, of each author's his toric relation and in?uence.
