AN INTRODUCTION TO SEWANEE The University of the South Is a corporation composed of the Sewanee Academy, the College of Arts and Sciences, and the School of Theology. All are owned by twenty-four dioceses of the Episcopal Church and governed through a Board of Trustees and a Board of Regents elected by the Trustees. Because the founders accepted an offer of land from the Sewanee Mining Company at a place known to the Indians as Sewanee, he University, and each of its parts. Is popu- larly known by that name. HISTORY The founders of the University were bishops of the Episcopal Church. In 1856 nine of these prelates signed a manifesto inviting other churchmen to join them In establishing an institution of higher learning to serve the entire South. Clergy and lay delegates met on Lookout Mountain near Chattanooga, Tennessee, on July 4, 1857, and resolved to begin work necessary for their proposed university. This first meeting of the Trustees was followed by a second in November, 1857. at Montgomery, Alabama. There the Trustees resolved on the name and site of the university. At a third meeting at Beersheba Springs, a resort near Sewanee, they received the charter granted by the legislature of Tennessee. The culmination of these early eilorts was the ceremonial laying of the cornerstone for the first building, which took place on October 10, 1860. The Bishop of Georgia, Stephen Elliott, placed a Bible and Prayer Book within the stone; the Bishop of Louisiana, Leonidas Polk, concluded the laying of the stone for "an Institution established for the cultivation of true religion, learning, and virtue, that thereby God may be glorified and the happiness of men may be advanced." The grandiose dreams of the founders were swept away by the Civil War, which destroyed the tangible work of their beginnings and the means for fulfilling their project. Others continued their efforts on a more modest scale, notably Charles Todd Quintard, Bishop of Ten- nessee. When the University opened Its doors for classes in 1868, nine students were enrolled. Since that time, with the early support of gifts from England and later with the contributions of generations of b THE UNIVERSITY OF THE SOUTH graduates and friends, the University has slowly achieved its present state. THE DOMAIN AND CAMPUS The University Domain, located on the western face of the Cumber- land Plateau, is composed of ten thousand acres. The campus of the University, houses of professors and residents, the village of Sewanee, lakes, forests, woodland paths, caves and bluffs are all a part of this great tract of land. The site of the campus and the surrounding coun- try have become one of the most cherished parts of the University's heritage. BUILDINGS The buildings of the College of Arts and Sciences and of the School of Theology are constructed of stones from the domain. In many cases they are gifts of benefactors whose names they bear. Numbers preceding the names refer to the map of the campus between pages 8 and 9; dates of construction and rebuilding are in parentheses. (1) Emerald-Hodgson Hospital (1877; 1899; 1908; 1912; 1950). Built as a library, the original structure was later used as an infirmary. After a fire in 1912 the hospital was rebuilt and further enlarged. Among the donors are the Rev. Telfair Hodgson and his wife, the Lilly Endowment, Inc., and Dr. Oscar N. Torian. The former nurses' home, partly constructed with funds given by Mrs. Frank P. Phillips, is now a residence hall. (2) St. Luke's Hall (1878; 1951; 1956-1957). This building houses the School of Theology, often called St. Luke's. It contains residence rooms, classrooms, offices, Grosvenor Auditorium, lounges, St. Luke's library, and a bookstore. The original building was a gift of an early benefactress, Mrs. Charlotte Morris Manigault. (3) St. Luke's Chapel (1904), the gift of Mrs .Telfair Hodgson, is close by the School of Theology and Is a memorial to a former dean of the seminary. (4) Thompson Hall (The Union) (1883; 1901; 1950). The early building, which housed the former medical school, was destroyed by fire In 1950. The present structure contains the student sandwich shop, post office, and a theatre. Among contributors to the building were the Hon. Jacob Thompson and Mrs. James L. Houghtellng. A new union Is soon to be built near the duPont Library. THE COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCES 7 (5) Convocation Hall (1886). Originally planned for convocations oi the University and for meetings of the Senate and the Board of Trustees, this building served as a library from 1901 to 1965. Breslin Tower, donated by Thomas and Elizabeth Breslin, contains a clock and chimes given by the Rev. George William Douglass. (6) Walsh Hall (1890; 1959). The original building, a gift of Bin- cent D. Walsh, was renovated with funds bequeathed by Dr. Edward Coleman Ellett. Classrooms, faculty and administrative offices are lo- cated here. (7) Carnegie Hall (1913). Known for years as Science Hall, this building now houses the Treasurer's Office, classrooms, offices, and studios. The original donor v/as Mr. Andrew Carnegie. Mrs. J. L. Harris gave the telescope in the observatory, the gift of the General Education Board. (8) The Cleveland Memorial (1965), connecting Walsh and Carnegie, was given by the family of William D. Cleveland, Jr. The offices of Admissions, the Registrar, Financial Aid, and Aerospace Studies are here. (9) All Saints' Chapel (1905; 1957) replaces the early wooden structure near the present site. It was left incompleted in 1907 and finished over fifty years later. Memorials to alumni, professors, resi- dents, and benefactors are found throughout. Shapard Tov/er, given by the family of Robert P. Shapard, contains the carillon donated in memory of Leonidas Polk, Bishop of Louisiana, by his descendant, W. Dudley Gale. The Chapel is used for daily services of worship and for University convocations, including those at which degrees are con- ferred. (10) Guerry Hall (1961) honors Dr. Alexander Guerry, Vice-Chan- cellor of the University (1938-1948). It contains classrooms, offices, an auditorium and stage, and an art gallery for visiting shows and the University's permanent collection. (11) The Snowden Forestry Building (1962) provides classrooms, laboratories, and a greenhouse for the Department of Forestry. The paneling of rooms and a large variety of wood samples make up the wood technology collection. (12) The Jessie Ball duPont Library (1965) is named for the largest benefactress in the history of the University, Mrs. Alfred I. duPont. It houses the principal library holdings and includes study areas, car- 8 THE UNIVERSITY OF THE SOUTH rels, and a collection of recordings and listening rooms. The Archives Room honors Mrs. Oscar N. Torian. (13) The J. Albert Woods Laboratories (1968) honors one of the University's most devoted alumni. It contains classrooms, laboratories, Blackman Auditorium, and the Waring Webb Greenhouses. (14) The Frank A. Juhan Gymnasium (1956-1957) includes the older Ormond-Simkins building. The newer part provides the usual accommodations for varsity basketball, swimming, wrestling, and coaches' offices. Adjoining the gymnasium are the Charlotte Guerry Tennis Courts (1964), the gift of members and friends of the Guerry family. Near the gymnasium are the Eugene O. Harris Stadium and Hardee Field. Residence Halls: Many of these are named for friends and bene- factors of the University: (15) Hoffman Hall (1922), (16) Elliott Hall (formerly the Sewanee Inn, 1922), (17) Cannon Hall (1925), (18) Johnson Hall (1926), (19) Tuckaway Inn (1930), (20) Gailor Hall (1952), (21) Hunter Hall (1953), (22) Sessums Cleveland Hall (1964), (23) Benedict Hall (1963), (24) McCrady Hall (1964), (25) Courts Hall (1965), (26) Trezevant Hall (formerly New College Hall, 1969). LIFE AT SEWANEE Generations of students and residents have attempted to set down in words a quality and a style of life considered by some to be unique. Many features of undergraduate life at Sewanee are similar to those in small colleges across the land. Other qualities seem distinctive. Perhaps a few generalities about these features would not be out of place.

  • Symposium Records Cd 1109 Adolf Busch
    SYMPOSIUM RECORDS CD 1109 The Great Violinists – Volume 4 ADOLF BUSCH (1891-1952) This compact disc documents the early instrumental records of the greatest German-born musician of this century. Adolf Busch was a legendary violinist as well as a composer, organiser of chamber orchestras, founder of festivals, talented amateur painter and moving spirit of three ensembles: the Busch Quartet, the Busch Trio and the Busch/Serkin Duo. He was also a great man, who almost alone among German gentile musicians stood out against Hitler. His concerts between the wars inspired a generation of music-lovers and musicians; and his influence continued after his death through the Marlboro Festival in Vermont, which he founded in 1950. His associate and son-in-law, Rudolf Serkin (1903-1991) maintained it until his own death, and it is still going strong. Busch's importance as a fiddler was all the greater, because he was the last glory of the short-lived German school; Georg Kulenkampff predeceased him and Hitler's decade smashed the edifice built up by men like Joseph Joachim and Carl Flesch. Adolf Busch's career was interrupted by two wars; and his decision to boycott his native country in 1933, when he could have stayed and prospered as others did, further fractured the continuity of his life. That one action made him an exile, cost him the precious cultural nourishment of his native land and deprived him of his most devoted audience. Five years later, he renounced all his concerts in Italy in protest at Mussolini's anti-semitic laws.

  • A Study of Music As an Integral Part
    A Study of Music as an Integral Part of the Spoken Drama in the American Professional Theatre: 1930-1955 By MAY ELIZABETH BURTON A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE COUNCIL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA August, 1956 PREFACE This is a study of why and how music is integrated with spoken drama in the contemporary American professional theatre. Very little has been written on the subject, so that knowledge of actual practices is limited to those people who are closely associated with commercial theatre-- composers, producers, playwrights, and musicians. There- fore, a summation and analysis of these practices will contribute to the existing body of knowledge about the contemporary American theatre. It is important that a study of the 1930-1955 period be made while it is still contemporary, since analysis at a later date would be hampered by a scarcity of detailed production records and the tendency not to copyright and publish theatre scores. Consequently, any accurate data about the status of music in our theatre must be gathered and re- corded while the people responsible for music integration are available for reference and correspondence. Historically, the period from 1930 to 1^55 is important because it has been marked by numerous fluc- tuations both in society and in the theatre. There are evidences of the theatre's ability to serve as a barometer of social and economic conditions. A comprehension of the ii degree and manner in which music has been a part of the theatre not only will provide a better understanding of the relationship between our specific theatre idiom and society, but suggests the degree to which it differs from that fostered by previous theatre cultures.

  • Walter Wilson Cobbett and the English Phantasy
    WALTER WILSON COBBETT AND THE ENGLISH PHANTASY Kathryn L. Lent A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF MUSIC August 2008 Committee: Eftychia Papanikolaou, Advisor Mary Natvig Robert Fallon © 2008 Kathryn Lent All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Eftychia Papanikolaou, Advisor Walter Wilson Cobbett (1847-1937), amateur violonist and philanthropist during the English Musical Renaissance, supported the composition and performance of chamber music in England. In 1905 and 1907 Cobbett held competitions, followed by a series of commissions over the next decade, for compositions that he called Phantasies. According to Cobbett’s announcement, the phantasies were to be twelve minutes in length, have sections that differed in tempo and meter, and had parts of equal importance. These works were to be reminiscent of the early English fantasies and were intended to supplement the longer chamber works that were popular at the time. Following a discussion of the English Fantasia and Cobbett’s musical knowledge, this thesis examines Cobbett’s phantasy competitions and commissions in addition to his definition of the term “phantasy.” After Cobbett’s ideas are established, the reactions and comments of his contemporaries are presented and discussed. The final pages discuss and analyze three of the award winning phantasies in terms of Liszt’s thematic transformation and Brahms’s developing variation. iv To My Mom v ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I feel incredibly lucky to have had the opportunity to work with Dr. Eftychia Papanikolaou. Her patience, encouragement and knowledge have been inspiring. I would like to thank Dr.

  • W.W. Cobbett's Phantasy: a Legacy of Chamber Music in the British Musical Renaissance
    HODGES, BETSI, D.M.A. W. W. Cobbett’s Phantasy: A Legacy of Chamber Music in the British Musical Renaissance. (2008) Directed by Dr. Andrew Harley. 73 pp. The purpose of this dissertation is to determine the role that Walter Willson Cobbett (1847-1937) played in the British Musical Renaissance by his initiation of a series of chamber music competitions, beginning in 1905, each of which required the composition of a phantasy. The phantasy was Cobbett’s reinvention of an older genre, the fancy, or fantasia, which had been popular in sixteenth- and seventeenth- century England. A vast number of new British chamber compositions was generated from these competitions. After examining the events of Cobbett’s life that contributed to his involvement and passion for music, the paper discusses some of the events and issues that caused England to experience a musical renaissance. This leads to a discussion of the history of the fancy in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Cobbett’s reinvention of the genre and some of the reactions to it are subsequently examined. The competitions themselves are presented in great detail with the results and descriptions and/or reviews of some of the winning compositions. Other important contributions of Cobbett are shown, such as his eleven commissions for phantasies, his sponsorship of prizes at the Royal College of Music, and the endowed medal for services to chamber music issued each year by the Worshipful Company of Musicians. Concluding statements portray the lasting legacy Cobbett has had on British chamber music. W.W.

Waggener ABSTRACT How does the aesthetic category of the sublime, in its various formulations from the eighteenth and early-nineteenth centuries, assist in explaining the significance of Felix Mendelssohn and his compositions to English and German audiences in his lifetime and beyond? Due to the conceptual proximity of a number of formulations of the sublime to primary traits of his compositional output, Mendelssohn’s life and work can be understood through the categories of sublime aesthetics. Despite challenges in his reception and complexities in modern scholarship, Mendelssohn’s biography and musical accomplishments consistently show conceptual and contextual relations to a wide variety of sublime formulations. Mendelssohn’s early life and works display a prodigious musical talent impacted by multiple sublime influences, including the ‘sublime’ music of George Frideric Handel. His most popular early overtures – Midsummer Night’s Dream, Calm Sea and Prosperous Voyage, and The Hebrides – demonstrate connections with an even wider range of sublime objects and concepts. Although Mendelssohn’s works from the 1830s and 1840s show an increasing appreciation for historical genres and forms, this does not represent a ‘decline’ from ‘sublime’ standards of originality, but an ‘ascent’ to new heights of ‘genius’, according to early nineteenth- century standards.
