The University ------ 341Instruction ; Religious ;Libraries, Laboratories, and Museums.My remarks bear primarily upon the study of literature, having special reference to that preparationwhich teachers are required to make, by way ofinforming and vitalizing their own lives before attempting the instruction of others. Upon the maintopic of these conferences, the Teaching of Literature,I want, however, an introductory word.The question of method was raised at our last conference, The one who could utter the sentimentquoted last week in your hearing, that " he who castsabout for a method is already lost," would seem toclassify himself at once with those who oppose instructional method altogether. But it appears thatthe author of the phrase is an exponent of methodology, his plea' being, however, not for a method butfor methods — not for a single, stereotyped, mechanicalmode, but for all the modes which must followthe moods and processes of our myriad-minded sub- IV.

Instructional method in literature is always asecret, hidden away in the subject-matter itself. Itsdiscovery is commonly a matter of spiritual penetration, part of the primary artistic interpretation. Myobjection does not then refer to method but to thesearch for a method, my thesis being that the teacherwho by his special literary insight has found his wayinto a subject will discover by the same intuition theway out. Failure in method betokens failure in fundamental literary perception. The understanding ofliterature must precede the employment of anymethod.This conclusion only prolongs and intensifies thedebate. What are the means to be employed inattaining the requisite understanding ? What constitutes the discipline of preparatory study? Nosingle and authoritative answer can be given today byany professor of literature. The present situationEntered in the postoffice Chicago, Illinois, as second-class matter.SEirttcatuwaLOn the Study and Teaching of Literature.By Oscar Lovell Triggs.?Address delivered before the English Conference at The University, July 21, 1896.338 -UNIVERSITY EEC ORBinvolves confusion and cross-purpose. Since 1771, theyear of the establishment at Yale of what may becalled a chair of English, the field of English studieshas gradually expanded. In some departments, atthe present time, differentiation is nearly complete.The general scope of elocution, rhetoric, and languagehas been defined with more or less certainty. Buteven in these subjects disciplinary methods are continually undergoing revision. In the department ofliterature the differentiation of subject-matter is still inprocess, and in point of method these conferences haveonly arrived at the discussion of principles. We havefairly clear ideas within a limited view about thestudy of single authors, kinds of literature, and literary periods. But at what boundary line should ourexcursions end ? We are conducting courses in English Literature, in Literature in English, in " Comparative" Literature, in Criticism and in the Theoryof Poetry. What preparation is sufficient for such aninclusive subject ? A satisfactory response might begiven to the somewhat discouraging question if preparation were merely a matter of knowledge. Butstudy must be directed also to the end of power andcreativeness. Is literature to be prosecuted alone as ascience or also as an art ? Slowly our eyes are beingopened to the fact that literature, in its purely artisticaspect, affords a discipline that is perhaps higher andmore comprehensive than the strictly intellectualtraining of science — a discipline that concerns thesenses, the feelings, the representative and creativeimagination rather more than the intellectual. Rightseeing, right feeling, right conception would seem tobe as important as right thinking. Indeed, the ultimate ignorance may be in respect of feeling and notof thought. If literature then is to be accepted as anart, the aesthetic discipline must be increased andfortified. The development of instruction in thisdirection is so positive that at no distant date TheUniversity will be called upon to cast out the art ofliterature altogether in very defense of its own discipline, or to establish a separate School of Literaturewith its own conditions and degrees, or to accept thediscipline of an art as equivalent to the training of ascience and to broaden, therefore, the scope of thedegree of Doctor of Philosophy. Some decision isimperative, for the present demand made upon a student of pure literature for the degree of Philosophyis well-nigh intolerable. Already the complaint isrendered that the preparation necessary for the degreeruns counter to that required for the vital understanding of literature itself. The spirit of literature isjust the spirit of the highest human life. Power andcreative capacity have value in literature far beyond knowledge alone. But 1 am aware ^that this remark,owing to the uncertainty incident to a rapidly expanding field, will not pass without rebuke. No authoritative word is yet possible.Leaving the confusion attending the effort to adaptan art to the use of scholasticism, I wish to considerthe value, of the study of literature for its own sake,for the sake of its effects on life and character. I desireto set before you three modes of studying literature :one having for its end "good taste;" the second, knowledge; the third, life; the first method being determinedby culture, the next by science, and the last by democracy.In an earlier day reading was ordinarily done to theends of good taste. The cultured reader, reclining atease in his library chair, assumed the critical andjudicial attitude, and learned what was right andwhat wrong in art. He concerned himself largelywith questions of taste, matters of style and correctprinciples of art. If the work in hand was wrought inthe "grand manner," in accordance with the standardsof classical tradition, he felt himself justified in feeling a pleasurable glow in the reading. It will be observed that this method has been the vogue of anaristocracy and has practically disappeared before theadvance of democracy. I suppose a dilettant here andthere, with his face to the past, finds some satisfactionin playing the role of a judge in finding what accordswith " good taste " and right reason, but to the mostof us it is a method hopelessly decadent.The rising forces forming and transforming themodern world are Science and Democracy. Literature and thought generally have been brought intoharmony with their tendencies. In what manner havethey affected criticism ? In part by reason of reactionagainst the criticism of taste, which came to be meredilettantism, mere tasting and relishing and objecting,mere "sensibility and opulent phraseology," mere" chatter about Shelley," in part under the constructive influence of science, its inductive method and itsconception of law, the literary world has workedtoward a new point of view. The general effect of theapplication of scientific methods and ideas to literarystudy has been to emphasize matter instead of manner,to adopt relative for absolute standards, and to introduce notions of life and growth. More specifically,three schools of study have arisen under the domination of the scientific spirit : first, the investigatorswho undertake the " higher criticism " of texts anddeal narrowly with questions of facts ; second, theinductive interpreters who work broadly with thelarge factors of age, race and environment, evolution,and personal force, or who scrutinize specific compo-UNIVERSITY RECORD 339sitions to determine the principles of interpretation ;third, the " comparative " group who conceive literature as one of the provinces of universal nature, whoseaim is to compare literatures, to study origins, thedevelopment and diffusion of literary themes andforms, and to group the whole body of literary factsaccording to natural lines of evolution.By reason of reaction against the deductive methodand of distrust also of induction, and under the constructive influence of democracy, the literary world istoday working toward a still newer and different pointof view. Edward Carpenter has given voice to therevolution in saying :" Art can no longer be separated from life ;The old canons fail ; her tutelage completed shebecomes equivalent to Nature and hangs hercurtains continuous with the clouds and waterfalls.The form of man emerges in all objects, baffling theold classifications and definitions . . .The old ties giving way beneath the strain, and thegreat pent heart heaving as though it wouldbreak —At the sound of the new word spoken,At the sound of the word democracy."The word Democracy thus spoken has resulted inthe extension of the bounds of art in three directions:First, the old distinction between the Fine and theIndustrial Arts, the aristocratic and democratic, thatis, is losing its force. He who works in whatevermaterial, so long as he is molding form under the con*ditions of pleasure, f reedonl and self-realization, isentitled to the name, as to the rewards, of the artist.The grounds of art are shifting from outward formalism to some principle relating to inner play and life.Second, in point of theme, a modern inclosure in thefield of art is universal man. The common man hasacquired the significance formerly accorded to heroesand saints. Democratic art has taken for its setpurpose to unfold the beauties inherent in the peopleand to declare the glory of the daily walk and trade.It is to modern genius that the words of Emerson areespecially applicable: "We owe to genius always theThe Faculty of the Graduate Schools :Voted, that it is the sense of this faculty that theDepartments of German and French decide regardingthe qualifications in a reading knowledge of German same debt of lifting the curtain from the common andshowing us that divinities are sitting disguised inthe seeming gang of gypsies and peddlers." In short,artistic significance is seen to belong to whatever hasthe single capacity of transfiguration. Third, democracy raises again the questions concerning the natureof beauty. Does beauty lie in the right relation ofthe parts of a composition, or in inherency andwholes ? Is it something artificial, conventional, orsomething attached to vital functioning ? Is it conserved by obedience to the aristocratic principle oforder or to the democratic canon of the characteristic ?Now, the whole tendency of recent aesthetics is toward a conception of beauty as relating to character.The modern feeling for beauty is as wide as life itself.Some stages of the expansion of interest may be seenin the never-ending revolt in art against the restrictions imposed by the classical canon of order withthe results of inaugurating at certain times vast andfar-reaching revolutionary movements in the direction of the romantic. Theoretical stages are found inthe growing inclusiveness of the term Beauty. Up tothe 18th century the term referred almost exclusivelyto that which was well ordered. In the 18th century the theory of the Sublime was developed, at firstoutside the theory of Beauty, but later included inits scope. At the same time the theory of the Uglywas broached, the ugly being conceived as the negative of the beautiful, but modern aesthetics places theugly as a subordinate element in the effects of beautyitself and so involves it in the larger idea. Accordingto the modern canon of the characteristic, beauty liesin significance, beauty becomes when a significantcontent is duly expressed. The middle term betweencontent and form is man, the artist who gives the ideato the form. Art has come to be defined, therefore,as the utterance of all that life contains. Beautyabides in creation on the artist's part, in re-creation onthe observer's part. Such conclusion is opposed tothat of "good taste" and of science which imply thatbeauty resides in the objective.and French required for the higher degrees, but thatthe test be confined to a reading knowledge in the literature of the Departments concerned.

W. Howerth.One method of extending university instruction,obviously the best method when it can be employed,is that of organizing classes outside of The Universityto pursue the same lines of study that are followedwithin its walls. The great center of population inwhich The University of Chicago was located, presented a favorable opportunity for the practice of thismethod of carrying higher education to the people.This opportunity has not been neglected. From the beginning The University has sought to form in convenient parts of the city and in suburban towns Saturday and evening classes, in which persons whoseoccupations or circumstances prevented their matriculation as resident students might still enjoy thebenefits of university instruction. The success ofthis work has been encouraging. Its continual andrapid growth, together with the subjects which havebeen pursued, is exhibited in the following tables.Tabulated Statement of Non=resident Class=work, 1892=96.Table No. 1.CLASS-STUDY DEPARTMENT.Quarter a4So> d8IS *dMIPftCD CDoH dQ2 egt udosco CD*3o 11" 85 beP.CO CD'3oH dd< dp .asCO CO"34 7 11 1 15 13 29 39 24 21 84 51 35 25 11150 79 129 15 109 68 192 496 186 278 961 625 322 195 1142Average number per class 13 11 5 7 5 12 9 12 12 9 84 7 7 1 13 10 13 28 19 13 28 24 20 15 35* No courses offered.Table No. 2.SUMMARY BY DEPARTMENTS.1892-3 1893-4 1894-5 1895-6 Totals for FourYearsClasses Enrollment Classes Enrollment Classes Enrollment Classes Enrollment Classes No.Enrolled""i'"2"21"i**1'2" i "io"i7^3811"io**26"l3 2421"*5131"*52"*2 103843"463344*"i76"i3 45482113116614"i143118 34522165341098782653730"*231246642242 2811621942287"l7*"i2"*2 2762215221379192213361"78....28**56 8177264378381613127222841212 711522723055English 5513037174114Scandinavian Literature Mathemathics - 1 713566Chemistry 6178Zoology., 804Biology. 1531111 129 29 192 84 960 111 1142 235 2423UNIVERSITY RECORD 343A glance at the first table shows that the number ofclasses, as well as the number of students, has gradually increased from year to year. The total numberof students enrolled during the year 1895-6 comparesfavorably with the number of students in residence atany time. The probability that in a few more yearsnon-resident students will outnumber those in actualattendance, will strike many as an interesting proofof the importance of the work.From the second table it may be observed that themost popular subjects, estimated by classes, have beenLatin, English, Mathematics, History, and PoliticalEconomy, in the order named.

The associationwas so impressed with the importance and value ofDr. Bauer's work that for the first time in the historyof the association it made a grant for research workin terrestrial magnetism. The sum of $50 has been and History third. History, English, Latin, French,and Mathematics are the only subjects for whichthere has been a continual demand. The total number of classes for the four years is 235, with a totalattendance of 2423.While the excitement of the political campaign willdoubtless interfere to a certain extent with the workof the coming Autumn Quarter, yet the interestalready manifested promises an increase over the past.Several classes have already been organized. Changesto encourage continuous attendance upon the classeshave been made. These changes, in the tuition andotherwise, may be noted in the circular of the Class-study Department, which will be issued in a few daysput at Dr. Bauer's disposal.
