Professor Kuehnemann to Lecture

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Professor Eugen Kuehnemann of the University of Breslau, has been selected by the German Government to lecture here under the arrangement made last year for an exchange of professors. He will offer three courses on German literature: German 6, on German literature of the eighteenth century; German 19, on the German drama of the present time; and German 20c, a seminary course on Schiller's "Wallenstein." The first lectures in German 19 and 6 will be given tomorrow in Emerson Hall, German 19 at 10 o'clock in the lecture room on the second floor, German 6 at 12 o'clock on the first floor. The first meeting of German 20c will be on Tuesday at 3.30 o'clock in Emerson C.

Professor Kuehnemann has had a distinguished career. In 1903 while assistant professor of philosophy at the University of Breslau he was sent by the Prussian government to Posen to organize there the Royal Academy, designed as a centre of educational activity, to form an important part of the scheme for Germanizing Prussian Poland.

Professor Kuehnemann is the author of a "Life of Schiller" and of a "Life of Herdi," both of which are standard works. He has written numerous essays, among which his dissertations on "Spinoza," "Plato," and the "Influence of Kant on Schiller," deserve special mention.

Professor Kuehnemann has been recognized as the possessor of unusual oratorical powers. He made a lecturing tour of the United States last fall in the course of which he spoke in the Fogg Art Museum on "Gerhart Hauptmann."
