Bowdoin College Bulletin Catalogue Number, Sessions of '. - .... Brunswick, Maine Bowdoin College Bulletin Catalogue Number, Sessions of i 941 -i 942 Brunswick, Maine December, 1941 Entered as second-class matter, June 28, 1907, at Brunswick, Maine, under Act of Congress of July 16, 1894. Published monthly by the College. Bowdoin College BOWDOIN COLLEGE was incorporated by the General Court of Massachusetts, upon the joint petition of the Association of Min- isters and the Court of Sessions of Cumberland County. The act of incorporation was signed by Governor Samuel Adams, June 24, 1794. The legal designation of the Corporation is "The President and Trustees of Bowdoin College." The College was named for the Hon. James Bowdoin, a distinguished Governor of Massachusetts, of Huguenot descent. The government has been, from the first, vested in two concurrent Boards, the Trustees and the Overseers, the Trustees initiating legislation and the Overseers concurring or vetoing. Since 1870 half the vacancies occurring in the Board of Overseers have been filled from nominations from the body of the Alumni. The earliest patron of the College was the Hon. James Bowdoin, a son of the Governor. He gave land, money, and apparatus during his lifetime, and at his death made the College his residuary legatee. His library, collected during his residence in Europe as Minister to Spain and France, contained some 2,000 volumes and as many more pam- phlets. It was rich in French literature and history and rare tracts on American history, and included almost everything in print on Miner- alogy. His art collection, also bequeathed to the College, contained seventy paintings, originals and copies, and one hundred and forty-two drawings by old and modern masters; among the paintings were the portraits of Thomas Jefferson and James Madison by Gilbert Stuart. Circumstances delayed the opening of the College until 1802, when Rev. Joseph McKeen, D.D., was elected its first president. Seven other presidents have since held office: Rev. Jesse Appleton, D.D., 1807-18 19; Rev. William Allen, D.D., 1819-1839; Rev. Leonard Woods, D.D., LL.D., 1839-1866; Rev. Samuel Harris, D.D., LL.D., 1866-1871; Gen. Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain, LL.D., 1871-1883; Rev. William De- Witt Hyde, D.D., LL.D., 1885-1917; and Kenneth Charles Morton Sills, LL.D., 19 18 to date. More than thirteen thousand, five hundred students have been ad- mitted, and eight thousand, nine hundred, and ninety-seven degrees have been awarded. The living 'graduates number four thousand and seventy. Among the graduates have been Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Franklin Pierce, and Robert Edwin Peary. 4 Bowdoin College THE COLLEGE BUILDINGS Massachusetts Hall, completed in 1802, was the first college building erected. Previous to 1936, when the entire building was re- modeled, the two upper floors were used for the Cleaveland Cabinet of mineralogy, named in honor of Professor Parker Cleaveland. The whole building is now used for the administrative offices of the College. Maine Hall (1808), Winthrop Hall (1822), named in honor of Governor John Winthrop of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, Apple- ton Hall (1843), named in honor of the second president of the College, William DeWitt Hyde Hall (1917), named in honor of the seventh president of the College and erected from contributions from many of the Alumni, and Augustus E. Moore Hall (1941), named in honor of his father by the donor, Hoyt Augustus Moore, LL.D., of the Class of 1895, are the five dormitories. The Chapel, a Romanesque Church of undressed granite designed by Richard Upjohn, was built during the decade from 1845 to 1855 from funds received from the Bowdoin estate. It stands as a monu- ment to President Leonard Woods, under whose personal direction it was erected. In the Chapel is the organ given in 1927 by Cyrus H. K. Curtis, LL.D. Seth Adams Hall was erected in 1860-61. It was named in honor of Seth Adams, Esq., of Boston, who contributed liberally towards its construction. It stands on the Delta, and is used as a recitation build- ing. Memorial Hall, erected in 1868, is a structure of local granite in the Gothic style. It is a memorial to the graduates and students of the College who served in the Civil War, and bronze tablets bearing their names are placed around the hall on the second floor. The lower story is used for recitations. The Observatory was erected in 1890-91 with funds given by Mr. John J. Taylor, of Fairbury, Illinois. It stands on the south-east corner of Pickard Field, and is reached from Harpswell Road. The Walker Art Building was designed by Messrs. McKim, Mead, and White and erected in 1892-94. It was given to the College by the Misses Walker, of Waltham, Mass., as a memorial to their uncle, Theo- philus Wheeler Walker, of Boston, a cousin of President Woods. The Mary Frances Searles Science Building was designed by Henry Vaughan and erected in 1894. It is a gift of Mr. Edward F. Searles in memory of his wife. With the Walker Art Building it forms the western side of the Quadrangle. Hubbard Hall, the library building, was also designed by Henry Vaughan, and erected in 1902-03. It was presented to the College by The College Buildings 5 General Thomas H. Hubbard, of the Class of 1857, and his wife, Sibyl Fahnestock Hubbard. It is built of brick and Indiana limestone and forms the southern end of the Quadrangle. The Hubbard Grandstand was given to the College in 1904 by General Thomas H. Hubbard, of the Class of 1857. It is situated on Whittier Field. Sargent Gymnasium and General Thomas Worcester Hyde Athletic Building were erected in 191 2. The Gymnasium was built from contributions from many of the students and Alumni, and named in honor of Dudley A. Sargent, M.D., Sc.D., of the Class of 1875; the Athletic Building was given by John Hyde, of Bath, in memory of his father, a graduate of the College in the Class of 1861, whose name it bears. Connected with the Gymnasium is the Swimming Pool, given in 1927 by Cyrus H. K. Curtis, LL.D. These buildings stand to the east of the Chapel, outside the Quadrangle. The Dudley Coe Memorial Infirmary is a three-story brick build- ing erected in 1916-17. It was given by Dr. Thomas Upham Coe, of the Class of 1857, in memory of his son, and stands in the pines to the south of the Gymnasium and Athletic Building. The Moulton Union, designed by McKim, Mead, and White, was erected in 1927-28. It was given by Augustus Freedom Moulton, LL.D., of the Class of 1873, as a social center for the student life of the College. It is two stories in height and stands just outside the Quadrangle, between Appleton and William DeWitt Hyde Halls. The Pickard Field House stands at the entrance of Pickard Field. It was given in 1937 by Frederick W. Pickard, LL.D., of the Class of 1894, and Mrs. Pickard.

  • John Williams's Butcher's Crossing Anthony
    “Young America” and the Anti-Emersonian Western: John Williams’s Butcher’s Crossing Anthony Hutchison In October 1870 Bret Harte published a review of Ralph Waldo Emerson’s latest essay collection Society and Solitude in Overland Monthly, the lively new San Francisco-based literary magazine already being lauded in the East for its “Far Western flavor” and “Pacific freshness” (qtd. in Tarnoff 159). Overall, Harte was content to defer to the celebrated “Sage of Concord,” effectively using the occasion to endorse the idea of Emerson as an authentically national figure wholly worthy of the cultural esteem bestowed upon him by his fellow American citizens. “There remains to Mr. Emerson, we think,” the piece concludes, “the praise of doing more than any other American thinker to voice the best philosophic conclusions of American life and experience” (387). Harte’s forerunning judgement nonetheless sounded a few more equivocal notes. Notably, given his own relatively recent success producing fiction depicting the pioneer mining communities of California, Harte took issue with Emerson’s portrayal of the American West.1 This was presented in the “Civilization” chapter of Society and Solitude where the region is interpreted as a benign domain in which powerful forces of culture and intellect fuse spectacularly with equally formidable currents associated with nature and will. It is in the crucible of this dynamic, Emerson proposes, in typically unrestrained fashion, that a new and substantive national character will be forged: ’Tis wonderful how soon a piano gets into a log-hut on the frontier. You would think they found it under a pine- stump.

    THE INAUGURATION OF CLAYTON S. ROSE Fifteenth President of Bowdoin College Saturday, October 17, 2015 10:30 a.m. Farley Field House Bowdoin College Brunswick, Maine Bricks The pattern of brick used in these materials is derived from the brick of the terrace of the Walker Art Building, which houses the Bowdoin College Museum of Art. The Walker Art Building is an anchor of Bowdoin’s historic Quad, and it is a true architectural beauty. It is also a place full of life—on warm days, the terrace is the first place you will see students and others enjoying the sunshine—and it is standing on this brick that students both begin and end their time at Bowdoin. At the end of their orientation to the College, the incoming class gathers on the terrace for their first photo as a class, and at Commencement they walk across the terrace to shake the hand of Bowdoin’s president and receive their diplomas.

Drawing upon extensive manuscript research, it focuses on the reign of Mary I (1553-1558), when the official return to Roman Catholicism was accompanied by the prosecution of Protestants for heresy, and the reign of Elizabeth I (1558-1603), when the state religion again shifted to Protestantism. I argue that the cognitive dissonance created by these seesaw changes of official doctrine necessitated a society in which religious mutability became standard operating procedure. For most early modern men and women it was impossible to navigate between the competing and contradictory dictates of Tudor religion and politics without conforming, dissimulating, or changing important points of conscience and belief.

  • 2 the Seven Deadly Sins</Em>
    Early Theatre 10.1 (2007) ROBERT HORNBACK The Reasons of Misrule Revisited: Evangelical Appropriations of Carnival in Tudor Revels Undoubtedly the most arresting Tudor likeness in the National Portrait Gallery, London, is William Scrots’s anamorphosis (NPG1299). As if mod- eled after a funhouse mirror reflection, this colorful oil on panel painting depicts within a stretched oblong, framed within a thin horizontal rectangle, the profile of a child with red hair and a head far wider than it is tall; measur- ing 63 inches x 16 ¾ inches, the portrait itself is, the Gallery website reports, its ‘squattest’ (‘nearly 4 times wider than it is high’). Its short-lived sitter’s nose juts out, Pinocchio-like, under a low bump of overhanging brow, as the chin recedes cartoonishly under a marked overbite. The subject thus seems to prefigure the whimsical grotesques of Inigo Jones’s antimasques decades later rather than to depict, as it does, the heir apparent of Henry VIII. Such is underrated Flemish master Scrots’s tour de force portrait of a nine-year-old Prince Edward in 1546, a year before his accession. As the NPG website ex- plains, ‘[Edward] is shown in distorted perspective (anamorphosis) …. When viewed from the right,’ however, ie, from a small cut-out in that side of the frame, he can be ‘seen in correct perspective’.1 I want to suggest that this de- lightful anamorphic image, coupled with the Gallery’s dry commentary, pro- vides an ironic but apt metaphor for the critical tradition addressing Edward’s reign and its theatrical spectacle: only when viewed from a one-sided point of view – in hindsight, from the anachronistic vantage point of an Anglo-Amer- ican tradition inflected by subsequent protestantism – can the boy king, his often riotous court spectacle, and mid-Tudor evangelicals in general be made to resemble a ‘correct’ portrait of the protestant sobriety, indeed the dour puritanism, of later generations.

The books you read will be used in your English class during the first few weeks of the first trimester. As you read, we urge you to remember that the art of reading is a creative act, a collaboration between reader and writer. Hold a dialogue with these books: question, argue, disagree; underline those passages that exhilarate you as well as those that infuriate you. Keep a notebook to jot down your imme- diate responses to each of these works and write questions that you want to discuss in your English classes. Encourage your family and friends to join you in these reading experiences. A number of the books on this list have been made into movies, many of them wonderful in their own right. Seeing a movie instead of reading the book, however, will not prepare you for your teacher’s assignment related to that book, nor will it replace the unique experience of interacting with a specific text.
