Thomas Wentworth Higginson, Women and Men, chapter 48 (search)
education has to adapt itself to this precocity of type. Moreover, it has to train to action as well as to learning; and, for something midway between learning and action, it has to train to the power of expression. Here is where the German system stops short; the German scholar obtains vast knowledge, but he ordinarily does it as a hewer of wood and drawer of water, until the cultivated French or English or American mind has applied to it the art of expression. For the philological study of the Greek and Latin classics, for instance, one must go to Germany; but you may explore a whole alcove of German editions and not gain so much of the peculiar aroma of Greek literature as you can obtain from Ampere's Grece, Rome, et Dante, or from Matthew Arnold's Essay on Translating Homer, or from our own Professor Palmer's extraordinary version of the Odyssey in rhythmic prose. For one, I do not ask for a mere reproduction of German methods until Germany itself is broadened and revivified.
