ORIENTATIONS 13
8. annotation (critical, historical or descriptive appraisal of entire
book or document) g. terminology in subject note that needs definition
Information on back of card;
10. a series of 14 lettered (A to N) and 38 numbered (1 to §8) squares printed on the margin of each card to be used for checking the category in which each subject note belongs
11. the subject note or excerpt copied from the work read (in literal or condensed form)
12. a space for reduction of the subject note to a basic idea or concept (when necessary)
13. the page number of the subject note
14. a bottom margin for inserting a line marker bracket that indicates the original location of the copied excerpt on the printed page
Only statements of a pedagogical nature will be culled out of the literature on singing and voice culture. These will be recorded, one on each card. The cards will then be sorted out and classified according to content and derivation of materials. By checking a combination of the 14 lettered and 38 numbered marginal squares provided on each card it will be possible to identify and classify a maximum of 14 main content groupings and 14 x 38 or 532 subordinate categories of subject notes, should the need arise. It will also be possible to determine which were documented statements and which were statements made by professional singers; and to identify and classify various other types of subject notes, such as historical information, background data, scientific experiments, notes on the causes of confusion in vocal teaching, etc
The homogeneity of concepts in each category will be indicated by their frequency of recurrence within the orders of classification used. These frequencies will be numerically summarized in Tables One through Ten.
Controversial questions will be italicized in each of these tables and summarized in Table Eleven.
Each category of concepts will be separately reviewed and discussed in its appropriate chapter. The sequence to be followed in these discussions will correspond to the plan that appears in each of the summarizing outlines (Tables I-IX) at the beginning of each chapter.
The study will be implemented throughout with working definitions of vocal and nonvocal terms. The first use of each defined term will be italicized. These definitions will be provided to facilitate comprehension of
