  • Why Atlanta for the Permanent Things?
    Atlanta and The Permanent Things William F. Campbell, Secretary, The Philadelphia Society Part One: Gone With the Wind The Regional Meetings of The Philadelphia Society are linked to particular places. The themes of the meeting are part of the significance of the location in which we are meeting. The purpose of these notes is to make our members and guests aware of the surroundings of the meeting. This year we are blessed with the city of Atlanta, the state of Georgia, and in particular The Georgian Terrace Hotel. Our hotel is filled with significant history. An overall history of the hotel is found online: http://www.thegeorgianterrace.com/explore-hotel/ Margaret Mitchell’s first presentation of the draft of her book was given to a publisher in the Georgian Terrace in 1935. Margaret Mitchell’s house and library is close to the hotel. It is about a half-mile walk (20 minutes) from the hotel. http://www.margaretmitchellhouse.com/ A good PBS show on “American Masters” provides an interesting view of Margaret Mitchell, “American Rebel”; it can be found on your Roku or other streaming devices: http://www.wgbh.org/programs/American-Masters-56/episodes/Margaret-Mitchell- American-Rebel-36037 The most important day in hotel history was the premiere showing of Gone with the Wind in 1939. Hollywood stars such as Clark Gable, Carole Lombard, and Olivia de Haviland stayed in the hotel. Although Vivien Leigh and her lover, Lawrence Olivier, stayed elsewhere they joined the rest for the pre-Premiere party at the hotel. Our meeting will be deliberating whether the Permanent Things—Truth, Beauty, and Virtue—are in fact, permanent, or have they gone with the wind? In the movie version of Gone with the Wind, the opening title card read: “There was a land of Cavaliers and Cotton Fields called the Old South..

  • Early History of Atlanta in Medicine, Architecture, Opera, Etc
    EARLY HISTORY OF ATLANTA in MEDICINE EARLY HISTORY OF MEDICINE IN ATLANTA* By Frank K. Boland, M.D. From the opening chapter of "Makers of Atlanta Medicine," a series of articles written by Dr. J. L. Campbell for The Bulletin of the Fulton County Medical Society in 1929, we are informed that the first physician to locate in the territory now known as Fulton county was Dr. William Gilbert, grandfather of Dr. W. L. Gilbert, former county commissioner, and at present a member of the Fulton County Medical Society. The elder Gilbert moved from South Carolina about 1829 and settled on the Campbellton road, to serve the thinly populated sections around old Utoy, Mount Gilead and Mount Zion churches. Just before the War between the States he moved to Atlanta and formed a partnership with his brother, Dr. Joshua Gilbert. In Martin's Atlanta and Its Builders, Dr. Joshua Gilbert is named by Dr. George Smith as Atlanta's first physician, who located here in 1845. It is interesting to note that Doctor Gilbert and Crawford W. Long, the discoverer of anesthesia, were born in the same year, 1815, and that Doctor Long was a resident of Atlanta in the early part of the 1850 decade, during which time he bought the lot bounded on three sides by Peachtree, Luckie, and Forsyth streets and began the erection of a fine residence. Abruptly deciding to move to Athens, where his children would have better educational advantages, he sold his incompleted building to Judge Clark Howell in 1855, and left the town with one medical man the less.

DELIUS MEMORANDUM GENERAL MANAGER TO; Mayor Ivan Allen, Jr. FROM: Jack C. Delius, General Manager of Parks and Recreation The only park project presently on the drawing boards involving any location in the downtown area is the complete renovation and redevelopment of Pershing Point Park, located where Peachtree and West Peachtree merge out near Brookwood Station. This is an extremely prominent location consisting of .335 acres plus or minus. We have received numerous requests from citizens and members of the Board of Aldermen for the complete restoration of this important location. The Graduate Landscape Architectural School of the University of Georgia presently is working on a design and suggestions for its redevelopment. As you perhaps know, it contains a granite moniment to soldiers of World War I. I have discussed with our four landscape architects what their plans are for this park and what they think the University of Georgia will suggest. It is felt that the park should contain at least a fountain, properly lighted, with possibly a piece of statuary, along with complete new shrubs, sidewalks, benches, etc. The architects feel that for somewhere in the neighborhood of $50,000 an absolute, first-class job could be done on this location.

Kuhn ABSTRACT Since the 1936 publication of Gone with the Wind and the 1939 release of David O. Selznick’s film version of the book, the city of Atlanta has been associated in the public mind with Margaret Mitchell’s tale of the Old South, the Civil War and Reconstruction. The work of Mitchell and Selznick created images that shaped the public’s understanding of southern history and of Atlanta’s identity. This dissertation examines a series of attempts to capitalize on the fame and popularity of Gone with the Wind in museums in the Atlanta area. Focusing on the interpretive efforts of three entities—the Atlanta History Center, Clayton County, and the Margaret Mitchell House, Inc.—this study reveals the problematic nature of Mitchell’s and Selznick’s work and the impact that the book and film have had on shaping Atlanta’s identity and the public memory of the South.
