Excerpt from The Forms of Prose LiteratureEsides my large obligations to Professor Wen dell - and his generously phrased prefatory note hardly indicates how large they are - I must acknowledge others almost as large to another col league, Professor James, through his Principles of Psychology to that and other works of his I owe whatever is sound in the psychology of this Intro duction. And besides the innumerable unconscious obligations which any active teacher owes to the many text-books on his subject, I must make special mention of the aid I have had from the introduction to the Specimens of Exposition by Professor Lamont of Brown University. I wish also to express my thanks to Miss Jewett, to Mr. Choate, to Mr. La Fargo, to Mr. Henry James, to Professor James, and to Professor Gates for their personal permis sion to use the passages from their writings which appear herewith. And I am under especial obliga tions to the publishers of these and of the other copyrighted works from which I have borrowed for their kindness in allowing me to print these selections.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
