Excerpt from Hints on the Teaching of German Conversation My suggestions are particularly for those teachers of the German language who are neither foreign-born nor Americans of German parentage; for those teachers who are away from the greater centers of culture, away from the ready help that large colleges and libraries offer; for those teachers who are confronted, single-handed and alone, with the puzzling problem, "How shall I teach my students German conversation?" Now it has been my very good fortune to meet and know hundreds of such teachers. During the eight years in which I was editorial adviser in modem foreign languages for Ginn and Company, much of my correspondence was with teachers in the smaller towns and cities of America. During the fifteen summers in which I have uninterruptedly taught in The University of Chicago, I have come into direct personal touch with such teachers. And we have sat many a sultry afternoon in the inadequate shade of a scrub-oak on the Chicago campus, talking, talking, talking of the smaller but none the less vexing problems which confront the man and the woman who in 'an unsympathetic environment are honestly endeavoring I to further the cause of German in this country.

Excerpt from An English-German Conversation Book The purpose of this little book is to familiarize students of German with the words and expressions that they must know, if their conversation is to rise above the level of laundry 'lists and bills of fare. Its plan and contents were dictated by my own needs during a visit to Germany, and an attendance upon some of the courses offered at the University of Berlin. It is the only book, so far as I know, that gives alternative equiva lents for ordinary expressions, and the only one that seeks to provide the student with the words and idioms most frequently heard in German University circles.

Excerpt from A Practical Guide to a Scientific Study of the German Vocabulary IN the present manner of teaching the vocabulary of the German language much time and energy are wasted. This waste is due chiefly to a general lack of system in the traditional method of teaching a vocabulary. The several hundred words presented in grammatical text books are extremely difficult to memorize, and after they have been committed to memory, it is equally difficult to identify them in a printed text or in conversation. After pupils have received instruction for two or three years, they are unable to read at sight an easy German book, and neither they nor their teachers have cause to remember with pleasure these years of toil. Many years ago the author, realizing this condition, attempted in his own classes to remove as many obstacles as possible. Primitive experiments justified the labor involved. Continued work along those lines has resulted, after many years, in the present text. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Germans at Home: A Practical Introduction to German Conversation, With an Appendix Containing, the Essentials of German Grammar Rationally the pupil cannot be expected to enter into the spirit and genius of a living language, merely by having placed before him a set of rules and a list of words - things dead in themselves, and hard to deal with. This may be right enough for the study of a dead language, but it will not do for that of a living one. Here the ear, the eye, the tongue, the imagination, in fact all the pupil's faculties must be exercised alike. Materials and facts must be gathered, learnt and, by various processes of teaching, so firmly impressed upon the mind of the pupil, that he may draw, from his own observation, and often instinctively, as it were, inferences and rules from them to guide him in his progress. After the pupil, however, has been made acquainted with materials and facts, sufficient to Show him something of the real life and the genius of the language, let us begin to explain to him the facts by laws and rules, which, however, by his own power of observation and comparison, he will have formed, to some extent, for himself already. Having explained the principles upon which the 'method' is based, I will say a few words about the leading features of the present little volume.

Excerpt from Material for Practical German Conversation The volume herewith submitted to my fellow-teachers and their classes in German Conversation differs more or less from other text-books on that subject hitherto within easy reach. It is not a book for beginners, nor even for second-year students. It presupposes a certain degree of proficiency in reading the language, a proficiency measured by the ability to read with profit books such as Schiller's T6]! Or Maria Stuart, Goethe's Hermann and Dorotlzea, Suder mann's Frau Sarge, or texts equally difficult. It assumes further that the learner wishes more than a collection of phrases pertaining to steamboats, ticket offices, and hotel accommodations, and, finally, that a review of the main points of grammar, in connection with the lessons, will be welcomed by both teacher and taught.
