Synopsis
Excerpt from German Style: An Introduction to the Study of German Prose
IT is not the primary purpose of this volume to exhibit the historical development of German prose, but to offer the advanced student a method of approach to the study of its formal beauty. Style, as Mr. William Watson has happily put it, is the great antiseptic of literature. Hence our study of prose should be, above all else, a study of style, and to sharpen the student's sensitiveness to it, a fundamental aim of every teacher.
