IN SESSION
Joint County Institute Hears
Discussion of Literature.
To Study Lives of Writers.

The study of literature was discussed in
detail at todays session of the teachers
of the joint county institute of Maryland

School before the teachers of the upper
classes, by DIR. Francis Harvey Green,
head of the English department of the
Normal School of West Chester. Pa.

raphies of the great lights of literature.
Remember. I do not mean to say that
the study of the. lives Of literary men is
the study of literature, he said. but the
study of the lives of the men whose works
you read will give you better under
standing. of their thoughts and. the mean
ing of their words
The speaker outlined the points about a
writer's life which should he remembered
when studying his works, giving the rea-
sons why each one of these points should
be considered. Among the factors which
he deemed most important were the pa
rentage, friendss environment and habits
Of the writer. He called attention to the
manner in which the works of several
great writer's had been influenced by their
habits, such as smoking and drinking,
and even eating opium. Then he pointed
out that many great poems which had
been written had been inspired by some
friend or loved one of the writer.
He said that in many instances it was
impossible to grasp the meaning of a
poem without knowing certain facts con-
cerning the authors life. Even death
or. rather, the thoughts of death-play a
part in inspiring writers. he asserted. and
quoted from eminent writer's some of
their productions. showing what they had
written in anticipation of their decease.
