Excerpt from Die Ganerben, Die Gerechtigkeit Gottes: Zwei Geschichten On the other hand, many of the passages where young learners require help which their dictionaries do not give, cannot with most advantage be explained in notes. Very often a short note can hardly take any other form than that of a translation, or of an equivalent in isolated appli cation to the particular passage, which is liable to be unthinkingly adopted and mechanically applied. In a vocabulary, the same information may often be incorporated with kindred matter, and given in a form which will compel the learner to make use of his powers of observation and of discriminating selection. In short, a vocabulary seems to be the best means of minimising the mere mechanical labour of the young student, while relieving him as little as possible of the necessity of thinking and judging for himself. With this explanation, those who make use of the present volume may perhaps take the absence of a note, where one might seem to be called for, as a hint to examine the vocabulary a little more closely. As a rule, every article has been written after a collocation of all the passages in the text in which the word or expression occurs. It may be remarked that the vocabulary is at the same time an index to the greater part of the notes. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
