Excerpt from Elementary German Prose Composition: Selected Passages From Modern English Authors for Translation Into German I have further provided the extracts with such editorial matter as will make it possible for students to use them as a graduated and systematic guide to German composition. The Notes contain, in addition to idiomatic translations of the more diffi cult passages and of unusual expressions, indirect aids for producing a correct rendering, chiefly in the form of paraphrases of the original text, which mode will greatly facilitate the work of translation' The Notes include, further, a number of syntactical rules accompanied by examples, but, in keeping with the elementary character of the book, such rules only have been given as are absolutely necessary in the early stages of German Prose Composition. In these paraphrases, indicated by the word turn, ' the English is not arranged in the German order of words, as it is desirable that the student should exercise his own judgement regarding the arrangement of the respective sentences.
