Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Primer of Sculpture The term classical, for instance, which is used to denote a school of itself in opposition to Gothic art, or to work of a realistic character, is a very misleading term, and used always in a loose and vague way. In literature the use of the word is more limited and its sense better defined but nevertheless even here there is in some sense a vagueness about its application.

Download or read book A Primer for Critics Classic Reprint written by George Boas and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-11 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Primer for Critics It is with many misgivings that I publish this analysis of the main ideas of aesthetic criticism. For it was made nor in the interests of the general reader nor in those of the technical Student of philosophy. It is thus neither a book of what the French call vulgariration nor yet a contribution to scholarship as that word is usually employed. It is addressed to that group of people who enjoy the clarification of issues even when those issues do nor touch upon their professional occupation, who would prefer clarity to edification even in those fields where edification is customary, who do not object to talk ing sense even when talking sense robs their conversation of its air of profundity. Books on the fine arts are no toriously obscure, almost hermetic. This is attributable not only to the sanctity which artists have acquired in modern times but to the vocabulary in which people dis cuss their works. It was with a view to dispelling that obscurity that this Study was undertaken some years ago. Unfortunately the accomplishment of the task has led to an insistence upon distinctions which will prove trying to all but the most good-natured readers. Let the Others remember that the author is a school teacher now in his middle years who, in spite of his being a member of the post-war generation, still retains a faith in education. That may make them patient. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Primer of American Literature The aim of the book is to be simple, orderly, and clear; to tell a few facts in such a way that there need be no confusion in the mind of the reader. While it is hoped that the subject-matter of the book has intrinsic value, a knowledge of literature obviously comes only from study of the literature itself; therefore, primarily the book will have its greatest usefulness when taken as a guide. With this thought in view, suggestions for reading, intended mainly for students in secondary schools, are given at the ends of the chapters. More mature minds will naturally read the books mentioned in the text. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Primer This Book of Beginnings, prepared for the very little ones, has for its first consideration the child and the things which he enjoys. His interests are varied and superficial, therefore many subjects are presented. He is held to one subject until he has assimilated but not exhausted it. His joy in his own creative imagination is not overlooked nor limited. The child's power of concentration is slight. Stories and rhymes make a strong appeal to him, and by holding his atten tention increase his ability for continued attention. So the story element predominates, although nature, animals, play mates and the home all have their delightful place in these pages.

Download or read book History Primer Classic Reprint written by Oscar Gerson and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History Primer In the elementary schools throughout this country, the general custom has been to postpone the study of history until the fifth or sixth year of the course. History is not entirely neglected in the earlier grades, but is taken up very informally. Even in the first grade our national holidays are made the occasion of simple exercises and oral lessons. The lives of our national heroes furnish considerable story material which is used to awaken patriotism as well as to arouse an interest in the history of our country. It has seemed to the authors that by the third or fourth year of school life it would be a distinct benefit to the pupil to have some of this historical material arranged in simple, interesting and somewhat connected form. This History Primer is an attempt to do this as well as to furnish a book which will serve as a transition to the more formal study of history in the higher grades. In accordance with universally accepted educational principles, the biographical method of treating the subject has been followed. The chronological sequence has been adhered to as far as possible, but has necessarily been subordinated to the biographical treatment wherever it conflicted with the latter.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Photographic Primer: A Manual of Practice The grooved or notched track-frame at the bottom, on which the front of the box travels, is usually hinged back of the center of its length, so that, when the ends are brought close together by the telescoping of the bel lows, the longest part of this frame or bed may be folded up against the front of the box, making the whole camera compact for carrying; the folding up has nothing to do with the operation of the camera. Roughly speaking, this is the whole of a camera box, except two other features of its construction, which will be noted further on.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Picture Primer The lessons in this primer are very closely related to the stories and pictures now almost universally used in primary classes. In consequence, a pupil who begins to read in this book toward the middle of his first semester in school will have become familiar with the vocabulary and ideas of many of the early lessons before the reader is placed in his hands. The author has succeeded admirably in securing richness and continuity of thought with a very limited vocabulary.

Download or read book Spanish Literature written by James Fitzmaurice-Kelly and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-10-18 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Spanish Literature: A Primer IT is now nearly twenty-five years since I first published A History of Spanish Literature. It naturally had the limitations of the time at which it was written but it had the advantage, if advantage it were, of representing a personal knowledge of Campoamor, Valera, Nunez de Arce, Pereda, and especially Menendez y Pelayo. This will explain in part the measure of success which the book Obtained. In other respects the volume in its Spanish version owed some of its vogue to the fact that it was adopted in the Universities of Spain. But a work which was suitable for natives would scarcely meet the needs of foreign beginners. It was accordingly resolved to publish a Primer which should meet some of these needs at the same time that it expressed the views set down here. There are a certain number of points which would not be familiar even to natives, such as the absence of metrical system that characterizes the early Spanish cantares de gesta and the veering to the opposite extreme under Boscan's leadership. The suitability of the present little book for foreigners is, it may be hoped, possibly considerable, if the last twenty years of my life have not been altogether wasted in teaching Spanish in English Universities. It is not sur prising that a Primer of the History of Literature should be in demand in the case Of the language which, after English, is spoken by a larger number of people than any other speech of the West. We cannot pretend that we have discovered half as much as we should like about the arcana of Spanish Literature.
