The Noble Medium of English
What a noble medium the English language is. It is not possible to write a page without experiencing positive pleasure at the richness and variety, the flexibility and the profoundness of our mother-tongue. If an English writer cannot say that he has to say in English, and in simple English, it is probably not worth saying.
What a pity that English is not more generally studied. I am not going to attack classical education. No one who has the slightest pretension to literary tastes can be insensible to its attraction. But I confess our present educational system excites in my mind grave misgivings, which I cannot believe is the best or even reasonable, a system that thrusts upon relucatant and uncomprehending multitudes of treasures which can only be appreciated by the privileged and gifted few.
To the vast majority of children who attend our public shchools a classical education is from beginning to end a long useless, and meaningless rigma-role. If I am told that classical subjects are the best preparation for the study of English, I reply that by far this preparatory stage is incomplete and without deriving any of the benefits which are promised as its result.
英语---高尚的媒介
英语是一个多么高尚的媒介.如果没有正面体验丰厚和品种的乐趣,及灵活性和我们的母语的深奥,那么写一篇文章是不可能的.如果英国作家不可能说他必须说的英语甚至是最简单的英语,那它大概是不值得说.
英语通常没有被学习的哀怜.我不是攻击传统教育.即使是只对文艺有微薄兴趣的的人都可以轻易察觉它的吸引力.但是依我所见我交代因我们的当前学制而激发的严重担忧,我不可能相信是最佳甚至合理的,系统推在relucatant和不解的许多珍宝哪些可能由特许只赞赏和有天赋少数.出席我们的公开学校的对绝大多数的孩子古典教育自始至终是一个长的无用和无意义的冗长的废话.如果我被告诉古典主题是英语的研究的最佳的准备,我回复显然这个准备阶段是残缺不全和没有获得任何好处哪些被许诺作为它的结果.
