“A good deal is taken for granted. The author’s system is nowhere treated clearly as a whole. There is no very plain intimation as to the time is desirable to be given to each chapter. There are exercises and selections, and there are brief passages of exposition and comment, but there is hardly sufficient organization of the material to make the method easy to follow.” W. B. Parker.

7–18308.
One of the decennial publications of the Chicago university. In this study Goethe’s “Italienische reise” is compared with the travels of his predecessors of the eighteenth century to show how far Goethe was original and to what degree he has been supplemented.
“The book is a work of research representing a vast amount of reading and labor, and will be of service to any one who desires to follow the story of modern culture and intellectual life.”
