Book Description
Excerpt from The Dramatic Instinct in Education Many of the subjects treated under the chap ter headings were then far less in the public eye. Six years ago only the first of the playground congresses had been held; story-tellers' leagues and clubs in town and city were exceptions rather than the rule; dancing was utilized far less than at present, in schools and other institu tions; and pageantry, in its modern form, was not yet introduced into this country. Also, con ditions affecting public amusements were less subject to scientific investigation. The delay in publishing has, howeve'r, had its advantages. The subjects have now become matters of popu lar knowledge and interest. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
