Synopsis

Excerpt from German Life: A Cultural Reader for the First Year

I do not believe that this type of German first reader is the only one from which the student may derive profit. But I do believe it to be the most important type; because surely it is necessary for the beginner to become acquainted with the real words which express actual, contemporary German living and doing before he comes to dwell in the world of romance and fable, fairy-tale and folklore, in the world of poetry, song, and old-fashioned symbol.
