Schiller's Die Jungfrau Von Orleans Eine Romantische Tragödie; With Introduction, Notes, and Vocabulary (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Schiller's Die Jungfrau Von Orleans: Eine Romantische Tragödie; With Introduction, Notes, and Vocabulary Read as an undergraduate made a deeper poetic impression upon him, and subsequent study and experience as a teacher have fully justified the early impression. Its sub ject-matter, as well as its literary form, appeals strongly to the pupil, and makes it an especially suitable introduction to the works of Schiller. The purpose, therefore, has been to adapt this edition, by a vocabulary and footnotes, to the needs of high schools, and, in the Introduction, to supply the material needed to understand the historical setting of the drama and to appreciate, in some measure, its merit as a masterpiece of literary art.
