Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Pageant of Bloomington and Indiana University: The Educational Development of Indiana as Focused in This Community and Served by the State University The Pageant of Bloomington and Indiana University, one of the Indiana Centennial Pageants, seeks to represent the educational development of the State as it has been focused in this community and served by the State University here located during the past one hundred years. The parts are taken by citizens of Bloomington and professors and students of Indiana University and their families, all uniting to produce the drama of the history and life of their common community. The pageant grounds are located on the edge of the campus of Indiana University, sloping up to the Observatory and to the newer University buildings seen beyond. To the right of the grandstand the closely massed trees of the campus give the effect of a wooded wilderness reminiscent of the pioneer days. The Pageant of Bloomington and Indiana University has been written and composed on the principle that both dramatically and musically the pageant is a distinct and individual art-form, having its own laws and its own technique. All the elements of this pageant have been worked together, in accordance with these laws and technical considerations, to produce, if may be, in the sequence of actual, typical, or symbolic scenes, a clear, beautiful, and impressive drama of the life of this community. In presenting the historical material a certain freedom has necessarily been exercised for the sake of dramatic clarity and effectiveness. In many instances the language of the dialogue is in the actual words of the characters represented. It has, however, seemed inadvisable to indicate these passages by quotation marks, on account of the frequent necessity for making slight changes, omissions, or additions in the wording to suit the situation as represented. So also in producing the pageant certain omissions have been deemed advisable which it did not seem necessary to eliminate in the printed form of the pageant.
