Several of the national narratives that we explored in the previous chapter—in particular, the discourses of progress and optimism generated by science and technology—are likewise evident in the pedagogical dialogue of the last decades of the nineteenth century. Stern (1983) notes three overarching concerns: (1) the introduction of modern languages into the university curriculum; (2) the “emancipation” of modern languages from the model of the classics; (3) the reforming of methodology. In the following sections, I will situate these concerns within a broader socio-cultural context.
