Excerpt from Faust, Vol. 1: Eine Tragödie
A German Grammar, and a Reader, with a V0 cabulary on a somewhat new plan, was prepared, a few years ago, by the editor of the present series, in the hope of contributing something toward the advancement of German studies in this country. In reply to numerous and repeated solicitations, a compendious dictionary, on the plan of the Voca bulary to the Reader, has also been prepared, and is now in the press. And it has seemed desirable to add a series of texts for class use, with brief but careful annotation and explanation. For this purpose, texts have been selected which are already approved by' long and frequent use, and the series is begun with Lessing's Minna von Barnhelm, Schiller's Wilhelm Tell and Maria Stuart, and Goethe's Faust (first part). The notes and introductions to the several works are by difi'erent_scholars, in various parts of the country; bfit'm under the guidance and revision of the general editor.
