In hours of distress' and, bewilder- ment over one's. ow .n problems, and those of thé world, it is a comfort to, hnd a book that:Ieads, one into, green pastures. This i s precisely what Pro- fessor Hatfield's Ncw ,Li.qht on Long- feIIozé did for me. Only the tatle of the ook disturbs me .: It sounds too tecbnical. It- givesi ao hint of the deliglitful hour one. is to spend. in the reading of it. Tired and worried as 1 was I languidly picked up the volume expecting to find a duli dissertation based on schol- arly research, and showing, for ex- ample, that in some obscure poemn Longfellow,had been influenced by some unknown German poet. No, that is flot what I met. I found ail through the book a live Europe influencing a live Longfel- low. I fourmd both the autbor's and the poet's evaluation of the Gerinan contribution to culture. This is es- pecially timely, because most of us are unable to judge those things sanely, when the government of a people is doing thigs of which we do flot approve. The light and theý dark spots of German literature are clearly seeri. In this book 1 found myself wanider- ing with Longfellow in romanticý Spain, in charming Germany, and then, back in delightful New England .1 For my companion 1 bad a higb spirited, cultivated gentleman. 1 went1 abroad with hlm in bis quest for1 knowledge.
