We have often mourned in secret at the prevailing fashion of getting up this, that, and the other poem for examinations, and have wondered what such an introduction to English literature is worth. Of this method of handling the work of poets one may use Wordsworths phrase: We can only say that, whereas anxiety to understand whatever one reads intelligently is to be commended, no individual knowledge about a masterpiece of poetic genius is to be put in place of the masterpiece itself. And we unhesitatingly condemn the practice of using poems as vehicles for lessons in grammar, Grimms Law, or any other technical matter whatsoever. For instance, if{706} Wordsworths Excursion has any meaning for your heart and mind, do not read it with notes which stop you four times in the first three lines, with the derivation of landscape, the explanation of downs and other kindred matters, which are undoubtedly useful, but should not be learnt by the medium of an immortal poem. If you need lessons in this elementary sort of thing, we should advise you to find them elsewhere. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
