1.0 out of 5 stars
Purely subjective and idiosyncratic. 1923.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Lecture on Lectures (Library Binding)
Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch was Professor of English at Cambridge UK in the 1920s. Better known now for his opposition to admitting women students. His pamphlet on lectures is based more on his undoubted skills in rhetoric than on anything a modern lecturer should aim to emulate. It does however indicate what a long way we have travelled since then. Quiller-Couch was an outspoken character who provoked amusement and anger by his dogmas, but was an undoubted scholar in his field (which was not the study of lectures).
