The Academy Series of English Classics. THE HE works selected for this series are such as have gained a conspicuous and enduring place in literature; nothing is admitted either trivial in character or ephemeral in interest. Each volume is edited by a teacher of reputation, whose name is a guaranty of sound and judicious annotation. It is the aim of the Notes to furnish assistance only where it is absolutely needed, and, in general, to permit the author to be his own interpreter. All the essays and speeches in the series (excepting Webster's Reply to Hayne) are printed without abridgment. The Plays of Shakespeare are expurgated only where necessary for school use. Addison.
