Description | Professor H. M. Percival taught several generations of students at Presidency College, Calcutta and retired in April 1911. He proceeded immediately to London and after a continuous stay there for twenty years, died in November 1931. the mystic personality of the great Professor, his profound erudition and wonderful teaching made an abiding impression on the minds of the students, who have all cherished a lifelong recollection of him with love and gratitude. He was one of those all-round stalwarts whose race has disappeared in this age of specialization. He was a Professor of English but he taught in addition, History, and Politics in the Honours and M.A. classes. The secret of the magnetic charm of Mr. Percival's lectures was a model of teaching which was exclusively his own and the most distinctive feature of his teaching was his utmost economy of words. Professor Percival's intellect did not lose in the least its former acuteness, nor did his in literary problems diminish at all in the closing years of his life that he spent in London. |
