"Special Method in the Reading of Complete English Classics" by Charles A. McMurry is an educational text written in the early 20th century. This work focuses on the role and importance of literature, specifically classic works, within the curriculum of common schools. McMurry advocates for the implementation of complete literary masterpieces in the classroom as a means to enhance the literary appreciation and educational experience of students. The opening of the text delves into the educational value of literature, highlighting the profound impact that exposure to great literary works can have on young minds. McMurry discusses the necessity for teachers to possess a genuine appreciation for literature, as this enthusiasm is essential for cultivating a similar appreciation in their students. He emphasizes the importance of integrating complete works into the curriculum rather than relying on fragmented selections, arguing that a thorough engagement with these texts allows students to develop a deeper understanding of human experiences, moral lessons, and cultural heritage inherent in classic literature. Overall, McMurry lays the groundwork for a methodical approach to reading literature that fosters both emotional and intellectual growth among students. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
