Mere Literature and Other Essays (Classic Reprint) by Woodrow Wilson PDF Summary

Book Description: Excerpt from Mere Literature and Other Essays And so very whimsical things sometimes happen, because of this scientific and positivist spirit of the age, when the study of the literature of any lan guage is made part of the curriculum of our col leges. The more delicate and subtle purposes of the study are put quite out of countenance, and literature is commanded to assume the phrases and the methods of science. It would be very painful if it should turn out that schools and universities were agencies of Philistinism; but there are some things which should prepare us for such a discov ery. Our present plans for teaching everybody involve certain unpleasant things quite inevitably. It is obvious that you cannot have universal educa tion without restricting your teaching to such things as can be universally understood. It is'plain that you cannot impart university methods to thou sands, or create investigators by the score, unless you confine your university education to matters which dull men can investigate, your lab oratory training to tasks which mere plodding dili gence and submissive patience can compass. Yet, if you do so limit and constrain what you teach. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
