Excerpt from The Year Book of Modern Languages, 1920: Edited for the Council of the Modern Language Association The General Editor hopes that the first volume of the Year Sj i?oo of Modern Languages will be received with the indulgence: usually given to a new venture. He could have wished that the task of introducing it to the public had been undertaken by more competent hands, but sharing the opinion of the Council of the Modern Language Association that a Year r.Book ought to be one of its principal publications he decided to accept the responsibility. As originally designed, the Year Book was to include general articles on the progress of Modern Language study from 1914 to 1919, followed by special articles on the various languages, with select Bibliographies. In view of the relatively short period available for preparation it was impossible to enforce a uniform type of article on the contributors who kindly responded to the call for help, but the following general principles were laid down: (1) Original research should be reserved for the Modern Language Review. The Year Book is to be a plain record of work done and progress made. (2) In dealing with language and literature, contributors should give an account only of events or theories which have provided new matter for discussion, or contributed definitely to the advancement of learning. (3) Bibliographies should be select, only those publications being quoted which contain a definite contribution to knowledge, or are really worthy of recommendation. It was hoped that the interests of school teaching would be represented equally with those of University study, but the claims on the time of members of the former profession were clearly too serious to admit of contributions at such short notice. No doubt this defect in the present volume will be made good in future issues. There was also great difficulty in compiling an adequate panel of contributors from the ranks of University teachers.
