To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
as they sometimes adventurously do even now, it is something that it is more fun to play at. As free men and women they cannot help being artists, they must needs choose that their play shall be a work of art whose rhythms fulfil some deep wish of the human soul. — ■" Just a moment! Some one, I think, wants to ask a question. — Louder, please !
" I said — this is all very well as a plea for a Free Theatre, but what has it to do with Educa- tion? " The Artist. " Evidently I have not made myself ...clear. The problem of Education with respect to Art is to keep alive the child's creative impulses, and use them in the real world of adult life. We don't want to kill the artist in him; nor do we want to keep him a child all his life in some tiny corner of the world, apart from its serious activities. We don't want the slave who has forgotten how to play, nor the dreamer who is afraid of realities. We want an education which will merge the child's play into the man's life, the artist's dreams into the citizen's labours.
