The Aims of Literary Study.
BY
HIRAM CORSON, LL.D.
18mo. Cloth, gilt. 75 cents.
"A book whose intimate companionship every literary man should
cultivate."--_Boston Budget._
"A source of inspiration."--_Boston Beacon._
"If a copy of this little book could be given to every teacher of
English in the land, the rising generation would have reason to be
thankful. Never before, perhaps, was the idea of literary education
lifted to so high a plane and so successfully carried over from the
realm of the purely intellectual into the region of the spiritual. Many
of the utterances have the precision and brilliancy of epigrams."--_The
Evangelist._
"A mammoth heap of information in a nutshell."--_Cleveland Gazette._
"It is written in a clear, logical style, and also from a broad and
comprehensive knowledge. The true spirit of literature and the right way
of estimating an author's worth are admirably set forth. The aims and
ideals of the study are excellently set forth, and what is more, set
forth in a clear, broad, and scholarly manner."--_Amherst Student._
