Excerpt from Goethe's Iphigenie Auf Tauris
The present edition of Iphigenic auf Taurz's contains two features not included in the apparatus of other annotated editions: Repetitional Exercises (fragen) and a Vocabu lary. As to the former, they will certam afford the teacher opportunity to give his class some much-needed drill in the ready use of the idiom which it is attempting to master, and will assist the student in appreciating the beauty and structure of the text as nothing else could. As to the presence of a Vocabulary in an edition of this kind, I am unhappily conscious that there are those who would never have a word-list included Within the covers of a text designed almost entirely for college study. They contend that espe cially in the case of advanced texts such as the Iphigenie the student should either do without a dictionary altogether, or at worst should be made to consult the pages of a good dictionary, and not allowed to refresh his memory at need from a vocabulary in the back of the edition he is using.
