Sinopsis

Excerpt from Adam's Latin Grammar Abridged; And Arranged in a Course of Practical Lessons, Adapted to the Capacity of Young Learners

The author would here beg permission to say one word on the propriety of using abridgements. - Too much cannot be said against the plan of adopting abridgements instead of larger works. A teacher who takes this method of abridging the mental labor of his scholars, takes a sure way of abridg ing their knowledge. But this concession does not imply that an abridgement is not a good thing in its proper place is introductory to a larger work. Unqualified objections to abridgements may seem very plausible in theory but they fall to the ground, the moment you bring them in contact with practice. Take the science of geography for an exam ple. If teachers acted on the principle of objectors to abridgements, they would, instead of permitting children to make use of a little book, suited to their years and their ca pacity, insist oil their studying Morse's octavo Geography.
