Présentation de l'éditeur
This book has been compiled in the hope of offering to beginners in German composition suitable material for useful exercise in translating from English into German. Reasonable ease and celerity in German composition is to be acquired only through drill in the common constructions of the language. It is not enough that the student write these constructions a few times; he must write them and rewrite them, until they are absolutely his own. Such work is manifestly most profitable when begun early in the study of the language and made to keep pace with subsequent advancement. Only such knowledge of forms as can begained in a few weeks is required for the use of Part I. The German originals and the notes are here expected to supply all the words needed in the English paraphrases; and it is believed that any one who has mastered German inflections can, with the aid of the I ntroduction, translate these paraphrases without reference to the Vocabulary. For the convenience of those who may wish to omit these Introductory Selections, Part II. is made independent of Part I. The selections have not been chosen for any special literary value. It is easy to offer the beginner too good literature. One might almost say that for the purpose of composition, except in the case of advanced students, the better an extract is as literature, the worse it is as an exercise. Even the mature beginner must first learn the simple style of every-day speech.
