Democratic art is to conquer in theplane of the common and general. What, then, is theuniversal human desire? What is the paramountwish, the realization of which brings happiness, thedenial of which causes despair ? I recall a picture byWilliam Blake, entitled " I want," which represents aman standing at the foot of a ladder that reached fromthe earth to the moon. Is it the moon we all want,anything so far distant ? Is it not something nearerat hand, as near as hands and feet, life itself ? I donot mean that we all seek to escape death but that weyearn here and now for full, abounding, energizedbeing. We want the fulfillment of the promise ofevery faculty. We want the greatest possible healthof body, activity of mind, glow of emotions, play ofimagination, force of will, - vitality of character. We want the thousand possible streams of thoughtand character and will impulse set freely flowingwithin us. Whence comes the satisfaction of thewant we know to be universal? Where but fromthe very source and fount of life, from the very art inwhich life has abundantly entered life conceivedafter the heart's desire, life, made not to the end ofgood taste alone, or of knowledge alone, but involvingthe whole of nature to the end of universal progress ?Art is the expression of man's entire being. A perfect response to literature requires the activity in thereader of those faculties of being to which the authorhas made his appeal. He who is unwilling or incapable of yielding the sympathetic response fails in hisinterpretation just to the extent of his denial. Thebest student of literature is the one who is alive atmost points, who can accept the challenge of theauthor to the contest of thought and feeling, who in?Address delivered before the English Conference at The University, July 21, 1896.346 UNIVERSITY RECORDhis own being is as active and as creative as the author »himself. What now is wanting in the methods of" good taste " and inductive interpretation when considered from the point of view of life's freedom, andpower, and pleasure in play ? The criticism of tasteis manifestly inadequate to our modern democraticneeds. It was. a method that came into vogue duringperiods of aristocracy when men were more concernedabout the manner of their speech and dress than thematter of their thought and character. It is a methodessentially narrow, exclusive, the special instrumentof a literary coterie and professional class. It is not,never can be, universal. Democracy calls less for thefine phrase, the selected gracious ornament, more forthe large view, the inner character, the grand personality that betokens universal life itself. The criticism of taste has, however, one important feature :it contains ideas of the best, it has standards of theright. Even a democracy wants to know the bestthing said and thought in the world. The criticismthat does not give rank to works of art fails in its important mission. When art comes to the judgmentof the people, upon what grounds will rank be given?On the ground of the " grand manner " ? Or on theground of the " grand " personality ? Evidently worksof art will be adjusted according to their capacityto satisfy and develop personality. The standard willbe inner and not outer. Then books that read wellin parlors will pass with difficulty in the open air, instreets and workshops. With the standard of "goodtaste " a democracy has simply nothing to do.The scientific process has the advantage of beingmore universal. At least, it is dependent only uponability to employ the method and not upon culture orrefinement. It may be employed by anyone who hasintelligence ; it has been used by those who have hadonly patience and industry. My objection to themethod is that in remaining objective it omits fromits results fully one-half, often the whole, of the literaryeffect, the subjective, that is, the response which thereader in his own creative capacity gives to the call ofthe author. Pure induction does not allow for personal absorption or provide for personal associations.It is afraid of enthusiasms. He denies any necessityof vital response. It is too purely intellectual, for anexclusively intellectual attitude is taken toward thatwhich is a product of the whole man as a thinking,emotional, imaginative and moral being. It is tooanalytic, detaching form from idea and idea from form.It has imperfect standards, the weeds and the flowers of literature having equal value under its scrutiny. Intoo many cases inductive studies are undertaken inliterature for the sake of the method. Our candidates for higher degrees have been advised to do awork, useless perhaps in itself, for the sake of themethod. So we have the absurd spectacle of methodbeing employed for the sake of a method the spectacle of cats chasing their own tails. Real science issomething more than a method it is the methodicalpursuit of something. Not one of the hundred thesesin literature can give a satisfactory account of the"something" it pretends to seek. Moreover, theamount of accumulated material is becoming burdensome. The study of literature has become a studyof studies and the actual contact with the life of literature is rarely permitted him who must read the latestmonograph. Much of this work is mere baggage impedimenta to be thrown aside by the serious studentat the first real call to life and arms.The final objection is most truly stated by ProfessorBlackie: "Not from any fingering induction ofexternal details but from the inspiration of theAlmighty cometh all true understanding in matters ofbeauty. All high art comes directly from within andits laws are not to. be proved by any external collectionof facts but by the emphatic assertion of the divinevitality from which they proceed."These words not only contain the unanswerableobjection to induction in art, but give also the hintfor a constructive democratic criticism. I woulddefine democratic criticism called democratic in contradistinction to that called scientific as the statement of the vital and energizing result of the contactof art and personality. Such criticism includes in itsscope both the objective and the subjective. It takesaccount of the object in space and time and also thesubjective response. It requires personal absorption.It permits the fullest play of those vital associationswhich are different in every person. The end of itswork is not "good taste," not knowledge, but life andcharacter.The bearing of this result upon the subject of teaching may be briefly stated. Teaching is sent back tothe teacher. The problem before us is solved by theteacher of broadest culture, who is responsive at manypoints, who has trained his nature aesthetically bycontact with the best things said and thought in art solved by such real men as Lowell, for whom studywas creation, the test of whose teaching was just thesuccess of a well-expended personality.UNIVERSITY RECORD 347©flKctal actions, Notices, anir Reports*OFFICIAL ACTIONS.The 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 GermanGeneral University Meetings.Instead of the usual monthly meetings of the severalschools there are held during the Summer QuarterGeneral University Meetings of all Divisions of TheUniversity, once a week.

They fitted the term topersons who seemed to them ignorant or uncouth to institutions and customs that they considered barbarous. They also,as a rule, abhorred the massive, the over-ornamented style ofarchitecture which had for centuries been called Gothic. Tothis general feeling of contempt for Gothicism there wereexceptions ; most occurred in regard to Gothic architecture.Probably because Gothic architecture was the part of theGothic least despised by classicists, it came first into favor inthe transition period betwen the Classical and Romantic movements. It started the love for Gothicism which appears sostrongly in the latter part of the eighteenth century.Gothicism, then, was a Romantic tendency founded upon areturn to the past, not only the mediseval past, but the remotepast, when the Goths of Scandinavia believed in their gods andheroes, and sang of them. To the Goths the Romanticiststraced the origin of chivalry and romance. Around this returnto the past collect associated ideas that belong to it, theinterest in superstition; love of the supernatural, awful, terrible ; love of wild, rugged nature ; admiration for Gothic architecture. The most tangible thing in literature belonging tothis Romantic phase was the Gothic story. It had more definitecharacteristics than anything else Gothic. By the presentationof the supernatural, the mysterious, the awe-inspiring, the horrible, it appealed to strong, definite emotions. The method ofsecuring powerful effects was by putting the characters of thestories into different situations and thrilling dangers. Thedramatic background of these Romances had to do with otherdefinite phases of the Gothic architecture, and wild, vastnature. Gothicism also includes the more general feeling ofadmiration for what was vague, massive, sombre, magnificent. This has helped to give it indefiniteness. The emotions arousedin this way were of the surging, but perhaps vague kind.Despite the fact that Gothicism was a Romantic tendency, someRomanticists, especially minor Romanticists, used the wordGothic with contempt, as the Classicists had, of uncouth people,ignorant people, or of barbarism in customs or times.So the term, somewhat loosely used by Classicists, passing tothe next generation was used more loosely and more vaguelybecause it appealed so much to what was mere abstraction offeeling in the Romanticists.The Gothic proper can be largely separated from the Romantic proper. It has often been confused with the Romantic.This confusion may be accounted for partly by the fact that thecentral idea involved is a return to the past, and partly onaccount of its use by the Classicists almost in the sense ofRomantic. But there are phases of Romanticism which are notGothic, such as interest in common people, sentimental melancholy, interest in religion as a personal experience. Again, theGothic went back to the past, but not to the whole past ofRomanticism. All past writers, for example, were not Gothic intheir " manners " of writing. The Gothic returns to nature, butnot to the whole nature of Romanticism ; to the Gothic belongs' rugged scenery only. This fact, that the Gothic involves certaintendencies of Romanticism, and these tendencies only in part,makes it difficult to treat with definiteness. Another fact, thatit is a general feeling, adds to this difficulty.To use a figure, Gothicism belonged to the youth of theRomantic movement. It was strong with the bounding impulsiveness of youth. By its very power it was at first attractiveand absorbing, but it soon ran to excess for this very reason,because it was young, because it was undisciplined, unrestrained, uncontrollable.W^z Alumni.The following is a list of the Class-Division that graduated from the Senior Colleges of The University onJuly 1, 1896, with their present addresses, as far as can be ascertained :Bachelors of Arts.Breyfogle, Caroline May, Columbus O.Chace, Henry Thurston, Jr., 5740 Rosalie ct.Cook, Agnes Spafford, Normal, 111.Dana, Mary Ida, Waltham, 111.Dibell, Charles Dorrance, Joliet, 111.Dougherty, Horace Raymond, 906 E.
