Synopsis
Excerpt from Precepts of Literature: A Text-Book
Tan compiler of the following pages puts forward no claim to originality. He has drawn, sometimes in substance, sometimes verbatim, from so many sources, that he is unable to make any other than a general acknowledgment. His only aim has been to place in the hands of professors and of students a text-book, in the literal sense of the word. He has endeavored to make each number of the treatise a text for the professor to expound and develop, and illustrate in his lectures, and for the student a leading principle to which he may refer the difficulties he meets with in the study of literature. He has not multiplied examples, as they may be readily found in the popular manuals, and he trusts that the plan of the compilation is of a nature to suggest the neces sary exercises. Moreover, it is his intention to pre pare, shortly, a companion book of examples, refer ences and exercises. For evident typographical reasons he has preferred to set down the questions at the foot of each page.
