Sociology at the Paris Exposition of 1900 (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Sociology at the Paris Exposition of 1900 The association of which we are speaking aimed to segregate certain of the most important portions of this maze of fact and bring it to the special attention of as large a number as possible by means of lectures offered by persons who were masters of their respective departments, and to use the exhibits as professors in modern universities use their specimens to illustrate these lectures. The plan was to give' the lee tures in some hall adjacent to the exhibits to which they related, and to follow this up by personal visits by the class to the departments where the objects were displayed, and by oral and tactual demonstrations, not merely of the objects themselves, but of their historical and causal relations and their true meaning to the present state of art and industry.
