SPANISH

Three courses are offered. In course 1, there are five hours weekly
of lectures and recitations.

1. Elementary Spanish.—Beginners may take this course: Pronunciation,
elementary grammar, reading and composition.

Text-Books.—Hill and Ford's Spanish Grammar; Taboada's Cuentos
Alegres.

Daily, from 9:30 to 10:30. Dr. Bardin. Peabody Hall, Room 10.

2. Conversational Spanish.—This course is intended to supplement
Course 1, and may be taken only by students who are taking Course
1, or who have had some previous training in the language: Pronunciation,
conversation, dictation, Spanish daily life and customs.

Daily, 10:30 to 11:30. Dr. Bardin. Peabody Hall, Room 10.

Students completing Course 1 and Course 2 will be given credit
for the first term of A1 Spanish in the regular session of the University.

3. Latin American Social Development.—This will be a study of
the "human geography" of Latin-American States. The physical and
economic geography, climatic conditions and population of the region
will be carefully studied, and the student will be shown how the
present day conditions developed out of the interaction of these
forces. In order to get the best results from this study, the student
will be obliged to do considerable parallel reading, for the purpose
of informing himself upon the state of the Latin-American republics
at the present day, and the history of their development.

Text-Book.—Reginald Enoch's The Republics of South and Central
America.
(Scribner.)

this course: Calderón's Latin America, Its Rise and Development;

The Argentine in the Twentieth Century; Enoch's Peru, Ecuador
and Mexico; Bonsal's The American Mediterrancan; Rafael Reyes' The
Two Americas;
