First published in 1914, as part of the Cambridge Modern German
Series, this book presents a selection from the text of Julias
Stinde's 1884 work, Die Familie Buchholz, in the original German.
Exercises aimed at schoolchildren and a German-English vocabulary
are also included. This book will be of value to anyone with an
interest in German literature and the history of education.
""The present Anthology contains a number of representative poems
produced by English-speaking men and women. The editorial policy
has been humanly hospitable, rather than academically critical,
especially in the case of some of the verses written by soldiers at
the Front, which, however slight in certain instances their
technical merit may be, are yet psychologically interesting as
sincere transcripts of personal experience, and will, it is
thought, for that very reason, peculiarly attract and interest the
reader. It goes without saying that there are several poems in this
group which conspicuously succeed also as works of art. For the
rest, the attempt has been made, within such limitations as have
been experienced, to present pretty freely the best of what has
been found available in contemporary British and American war
verse."" This book is part of the World War One Centenary series;
creating, collating and reprinting new and old works of poetry,
fiction, autobiography and analysis. The series forms a
commemorative tribute to mark the passing of one of the world's
bloodiest wars, offering new perspectives on this tragic yet
fascinating period of human history. Each publication also includes
brand new introductory essays and a timeline to help the reader
place the work in its historical context.
