Description:Excerpt from The Study of Literature as a Mode of Expressing Life: Mother Goose Humor The beginnings of every literature express the childhood of the race. Mother Goose with her songs to and from all her children is the type of all these beginnings. Life accompanied by Mother Goose must develop in the child those essential elements of complete living which her sympathy constantly expresses and which lead to true growth. The relation of the parent to the child and of one child to another in the family are the universal, elemental relations. Mother Goose's songs to Willy and Simple Simon, etc., the children's songs of play with the mother and with one another, show the humor which is the setting of the true family life. Humor is a spiritual faculty; its influence in self-conscious growth is fundamental, for through its use alone one can find the true background in the changes that the growth of life must produce.
