DEDICATION 22 The 1962 Ciarla is dedicated to Dr. Harold L. Stenger, Jr., Professor of English and Chairman of the Department of English. Such a dedication is at best a tricky and bother- some business; it is no pleasure to attempt dis- section in black and white of a man. Adding to this discomfort is the legend which grows about Dr. Stenger; nourished by sophomore English ma- jors, fed on baroque worship by junior English majors, the myth is not dispelled until senior majors, preparing for the department’s demonic comprehensive examination, look wearily up from four years’ notebooks to utter various forms of high blasphemy. The myth is of a man behind the last desk in the English office’s various clutter who looks from the desk as if from a flying bridge, bringing order to the chaos of registration, pre- examination tremblings, post-examination re- grets, personal woes; such an adjective as “pater- nalistic” would not be amiss here, and would be resented by none save perhaps Dr. Stenger. The myth too, and especially, is of a man in a class- room, teaching Shakespeare’s uniqueness and uni- versality, Shelly’s vision, Peacock’s heresy. Dr. Stenger is a scholar of the highest order, bringing to us a reverenced, comprehensive, and particular view of literature as a looking-glass entrance to man’s soul. And he is a scholar of form, definite and demanding, whether it be of our energy or our footnotes. Inspiration is what Dr. Stenger offers, and brilliance, and the great force of a mature mind. He is recognizable as a man to be admired to the fullest, emulated by us as prospective scholars, professors, leaders— as men- to-be admiring a man.
