Item description from seller

2 1/4 pages. 1 vols. 4to. Responding to Hartley's query regarding the importance of formal education on his writing he quoted John Dewey "The purpose of an education is to produce a disciplined mind" and that "Perhaps the most valuable discipline I received in high school came from participation in inter-high-school debates. It forced on me the necessity of thorough exploration and analysis of materials, combined with clear presentation. The most valuable feature of my college course was an introduction to English poetry, which gave meaning to all the other arts and made it possible to write prose with some sense of structural balance and word-harmony" To Wesley Hartley, an educator and teacher of creative writing. Folds, else fine.
