"Talks on Teaching Literature" by Arlo Bates is an educational treatise written in the early 20th century. The book serves as a guide for educators, outlining effective methods for teaching literature while addressing the challenges faced within the classroom environment. Bates reflects on the complexities of imparting literature as a subject, emphasizing the need to inspire appreciation rather than rote learning. The opening portion of the text introduces the fundamental challenges teachers encounter in conveying the essence of literature to students. Bates discusses the inherent difficulties in teaching an art form that cannot easily be articulated through language alone, questioning the very purpose and efficacy of literature education. He stresses the importance of connecting students emotionally to the material and highlights the limitations of traditional methods, which often reduce literature to mere facts and examination preparation. Ultimately, he sets the stage for further discussions on improving literature instruction that fosters genuine understanding and appreciation among students.
