Footnotes
This article comprises lectures delivered in the Eye Department (Tennent Foundation) of the University of Glasgow in April 1936. General questions concerning light and color sense were treated. Special attention was paid to German literature; it was taken for granted that English authors were well known to the listeners, and they were therefore only mentioned in passing. Similarly, in this printed version of the lectures the citations are restricted to the most essential. Dr. Arnold Knapp, one of the editors of the Archives, suggested that the lectures be printed in this journal, which was not originally contemplated. Since the hearers in Glasgow were mostly practicing ophthalmologists, some principles which are well known to psychologists are treated rather fully.
