University of Virginia Library

M. A. COURSE.

In this course there will be occasional lectures, but in
general the exercises of the class will be conducted by questions,
conversation, and conference. Readings will be
assigned, independent investigation insisted upon, and written
reports required from time to time. The students will

be encouraged to form their own judgments and to express
them orally or in writing. References for each author,
period, or subject studied will be given, and the free use of
the library in this and all courses is cordially recommended.
