    — ' LJEM' i .i jc ; f. iUSlQNS ASST. D-T. 'C? / EMERSONIAN Nineteen Hundred and Sixty-Seven Emerson College Boston, Massachusetts . Eighty-Seven Years Men have tried to communicate their wants to others for centuries. The cavemen grunted at first, blind people used braille, and deaf people use their hands and fingers. The more fortunate people can just speak. But just speaking or communicating is much harder than it seems. From world leaders to everyday housewives, this Art is strived for. Many desire it but feu attain real perfection. For this reason one professor and his six students felt it necessary to begin a college of oratory. Emerson has come a long way since it was founded in 1880. as a private school, by Charles Wesley Emerson. In those days it was more commonly known as The Boston Conservatory located at Pemberton Square. So the birth of a new school with new ideas began. But just as success and time never stand still, so it was with our Emerson of today. Mr. Emerson's college began a series of moves and name changes right up until 1 908. In the cool September of 1886, the Boston Conservatory of Oratory was removed to Wesleyan Hall on Bromfield Street and named the Monroe College of Oratory. Just a short four years later, as a result of a petition to the Legisla- ture. the institution was again renamed. This time the famil- iar word Emerson came into being. It was named Emerson College of Oratory And so time continued and the college grew. Finally men were beginning to filtrate into the once all woman enroll- ment.

    Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2016 https://archive.org/details/emersonianemerso1950unse Charles Wesley Emersc FOUNDER foreword The (’lass of 1950 has seen and has par- ticipated in the significant growth which Emerson College has achieved daring the last four years. 1.9 the school increased its academic and labora- tory facilities, the students multiplied their extra- curricular activities. Student groups organized athletics, founded a debating society, and estab- lished a tunespaper that serves as an active voice of the students. The Class of 1950 produced many of the leaders of these groups and took the helm in much of the undergraduate organization. In preparing this, our college annual, we have tried to keep this recent Emerson advance in mind. We wanted our book to be, not only a permanent record of the growth of a class, but also a picture of Emerson itself. In photograph and in word we have made every effort to recapture the short segment of Emerson history of which we are a part. It is with these thoughts foremost in mind that we present the 1950 “Emersonian Dedication The only conclusive evidence of a man s sincerity is that he gives himself for a principle. Words, money, all things else, are comparatively easy to give away: hut when a man makes a gift of his daily life and practice, it is plain that the truth, whatever it may be, has taken possession of him. Lowell. For these reasons, so excellently expressed, and be- cause he has done so much for Emerson College with a cer- tain perfection and a personality embodying the finest in taste and culture, we dedicate the 1950 Emersonian to CHARLES W.

  • PART III Performance of and Beyond Literature
    Madison-09.qxd 10/14/2005 5:55 PM Page 143 PART III Performance of and Beyond Literature PAUL EDWARDS Interpretation is an excellent way of studying literature because it demands that the student perceive. The silent reader, skimming and skipping and scavenging often only for particular ideas or images, frequently does not really assimilate whole pieces of literature. But the interpreter cannot so read. He must bring the whole poem close to himself. The act of oral reading before an audience (though that audience may be a single listener—or, indeed, only the reader himself) is ...a kind of final act of criticism. —Wallace Bacon, The Art of Interpretation (1966, pp. 6, 8–9) When I choose texts, they’re random in a way. I feel I could use any text. That was something that started very early with Spalding [Gray]. I could pick anything in this room. ...I could take three props here: the printing on the back of that picture, this book, and whatever’s in this pile of papers, and make something that would mean as much, no more nor less, than what I’ve constructed in the performance space downstairs. Finally, it’s not about that text. ...I take [some] chance occurrence and say, that is the sine qua non, that is the beginning, that is the text. I cannot stray from that text. As someone else would use the lines of a playwright, I use that action as the baseline. —Elizabeth LeCompte (quoted in Savran, 1988, pp. 50–51) hy “literature”?

Those old brownstone buildings have not changed much since the first time we espied them four years ago. Remember? I wonder if the old buildings are saying the same thing about us. Somehow, I do not think so. We have changed considerably during this past episode in our lives. Not all of the changes have been pleasant. At times the metamorphosis has been painful. But who can forget those sweet changes that crept stealthily by and startled us by tapping us on the shoulder from behind. Some of us fell in love among the brownstone walls. Some of us learned. When we first saw the school we were somewhat disappointed. Where was the campus? How could a college be so small? But, at the same time, we were struck by a strange, indescribable charm that seemed almost against our will to envelope us.
