Excerpt from Maria Stuart: Ein TrauerspielThe editors of the present volume have long felt the need of new editions of the German classics used in American schools. They find that even the best works of this kind fail, in some way or other, to fit in with what they consider to be the most fruitful methods of teaching the modern languages.In their judgment, the exclusive use of English in introduction and notes not only spoils the atmosphere, the milieu, with which a teacher should surround a German work of art, but also means a serious loss of time set apart for the acquirement of the foreign idiom.Long experience has shown them that, to procure the best results during the short time given to instruction in German in our schools and colleges, translation into English should be used as a handmaid only, never as an end in itself, at least not in those classes in which German is studied for its own sake.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
