Synopsis
Excerpt from Addresses and Lectures
It is a notable characteristic of this Academy that the several teachers who favour us with their assist ance have free scope for the exercise of their powers - untrammelled by a system, unlimited hy'the views of others. Truth is a many-sided statue; it is to be seen from all aspects, and each person whose duty it is to explain it must give that explanation from his own point of vision. This one may tell us that the shield is gold, that one that it is silver: we compare the evidence of both, and learn that there are two sides to the shield, which bears various colours. Thus an admirable advantage to a Student in this School is that, while each has the privilege of the advice and instruction of the particular Professor to whom his talents are confided, each gathers something of the perception and insight of the whole Academic staff. It is most notable that a large part of your instruc tion, my dear young friends, is communicated by and among yourselves. This one has been told by his Professor from such an aspect, that one from such another. You compare their views, you enlarge upon your perception of those very views, and you come by this means to a comprehension of the many-sided truth.
