 There Wa d time when Latin was he Ian. uase of aristocratic literature,

The same tradition of aristocratic ex- pressioa in literature has animated academic criticism at all times. Amer ican literature will have to endure it's condemnation. If we produce litera- ture that bears the same relation to Ameri.
