Excerpt from The City Country School: Formerly, the Play School, 14 Macdougal Alley, New York, 1919-1920 We are constantly asked, especially by parents who are trying to place their children in what they consider a good school, how our school differs from the kindergarten, and again how it differs from the Montessori schools. The kindergarten is a system of teaching. It undertakes to teach children to play in such a way that through the process they will become educated. The formal kindergarten is fixed I and arbitrary, as much so as any school system. It acknowledges the activities of children in general but not their individuality. It attempts to socialize activities at a time which is pretty generally acknowledged to be a period of individual development. This is only partially true of some of the "radical" kindergartens. They have modified their practice so as to permit more individual play, but even so it is not unfair to say that these kindergartens are teaching systems in the main. The Montessori system is a system of training. It gives the children more freedom in their environment than the kindergarten. That is, the children may move about and choose what they will do. The material from which they choose, however, is training material. Instead of the teacher as a trainer the odium is thrown upon the insensitive blocks, bits of fabric, weights, sand paper letters and figures. This training material the children may not use freely to carry out purposes of their own, but they must do that one thing for which the material is designed. So the freedom of choice lies between a very limited set of activities. One of the signs of the passing of babyhood is to be found in the growing purposefulness of children's activities.

In the years of and around the First World War, American poets, fiction writers, and dramatists came to the forefront of the international movement we call Modernism. At the same time a vast amount of non- and anti-Modernist culture was produced, mostly supporting, but also critical of, the US war effort. A History of American Literature and Culture of the First World War explores this fraught cultural moment, teasing out the multiple and intricate relationships between an insurgent Modernism, a still-powerful traditional culture, and a variety of cultural and social forces that interacted with and influenced them. Including genre studies, focused analyses of important wartime movements and groups, and broad historical assessments of the significance of the war as prosecuted by the United States on the world stage, this book presents original essays defining the state of scholarship on the American culture of the First World War.
