Description
Excerpt from Wilhelm Hauff Das Kalte Herz: Edited, Together With Schiller''s Ballad; Der Gang Nach Dem Eisenhammer; With English Notes, Glossary, and Grammatical Appendix
Hauff''s tale Das Kalte Herz, perhaps the most delightful of all his tales, forms, together with Schil ler''s ballad, Der Gang nach dem Eisenhammer, the work prescribed by the University Of Toronto for Junior Matriculation for the years 1887 and. 1889.
Encouraged by the success which has attended the issue of Grimm''s Tales, the present editor pre sents this little tale in an edition in which the same principles are followed out which guided him in his previous work. The many kindly notices Of the latter from teachers of German, not only in the Province of Ontario, but from all parts of the United States, is a proof, peculiarly grateful to an editor whose chief Object has been the advancement of the study Of the German language, that work has only to be thorough to be appreciated, and this appreciation is dear to him, however humble, may be the par ticular work which he has chosen. Nowhere are sound scholarship and minute accuracy more neces sary than in a work destined for the hands of elemen tary pupils; and nowhere, it might almost be added, has such work been more rare hitherto in German school-books, at least on this continent.
