Excerpt from An Anthology of English Poetry for Schools It seems to the editor a matter of the first importance for the successful teaching of literature that the instructor should himself have a clear conception of the purpose of literature and of the means by which this purpose is attained. There is often a vague ness and misdirection of energy in class-work, because the teacher, while himself, it may be, a lover and competent judge of books, has never clearly apprehended what literature has actually done for himself, and how its results have been attained. In the introduc tions to various volumes of poetical selections, which the writer published in recent years (the Study of Literature, 1898, Thought and Form of Poetry, 1897, Metre in Relation to Thought, he has addressed himself to this task, and in the Introduction to the present volume he attempts the consideration of another and some what more abstract phase of the same problem. The Introduction, therefore, is not designed directly for the use of the pupils, for whom the selections themselves are intended.
