Book Description
Excerpt from An Old Castle and Other Essays Seldom is it the teacher's lot to have any of his work perpetuated in lasting literary form. But Professor Win chester's students will remember how the work in the class room led up to finished summary lectures. They developed out of the rich autumn mould of his acquisitions, year after year,1 and showed us best of all how thorough and thought ful study had enabled him to see into the life of things. In these talks to students lay the origins of the public lec tures which charmed and enlightened a far more widely ranging audience. Even the latter, Professor Winchester rarely published. Therefore certain typical examples, rep resentative both of his power as a teacher and his appeal as a lecturer, it has now seemed best to give to the world. Art, once wrote their author, is. The only way the indi vidual has of perpetuating his personality. In this way these papers are not alone of intrinsic value but fitly memorial.
