Every word is of common, habitual use, but most young people would be well-nigh helpless when con- fronted with them in this passage.
The use in literature of allusion, of figures, of striking and unusual employment of words, must be- come familiar to the student before he is in a con- dition to deal with literature easily and with full 66 TALKS ON TEACHING LITERATURE intelligence. The process must be almost like that of learning to read in a foreign tongue. For a teacher to ignore this fact is
... to take the position of a professor in Italian or Spanish who begins the reading of his pupils not with words and simple sentences, but with intricate prose and verse.
It must be remembered, moreover, that if the diction of literature is removed from the daily ex- perience of the pupil, the ideas and the sentiments of literature are yet more widely apart from it.
Literature must deal largely with abstract thoughts and ideas, expressed or implied ; it is necessarily concerned with sentiments more elevated or more profound than those with which life makes the young familiar.
