Book excerpt: Excerpt from Boston Common: Tale of Our Own Times "Fancy pours Afresh her beauties on his busy thought, Her first endearments twining round the soul, With all the witchcraft of ensnaring love." Anon. Boston common! What memories does this beloved name awaken in my heart! - what associations recall from the recesses of the long-buried past! Now, while these memories and associations are fresh in my mind, wilt come with me, dear reader, to this sweet spot? wilt recline 'neath the sheltering branches of these noble trees? wilt place thy hand cordially in mine, and lend me thy sympathy and thy heart? and, while the birds are warbling their love-songs over thy head, and the rainbow-tinted fountain dashes its delicate and cooling spray about thy feet, - while the fleecy clouds rest lightly in the southern heavens, and the distant hum of the busy city, together with the far off murmuring of waters, lull thy senses to forgetfulness of care, - wilt listen to my simple tale?

Download or read book Boston Common written by Samuel Barber and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Boston Common: A Diary of Notable Events, Incidents, and Neighboring Occurrences Boston Common belongs to the world. In or around it took place events which link it with the history of government for and by the people in this country. From it radiated the influences that led to democratic as opposed to aristocratic rule. To it can be traced the gatherings in town halls by the substantial men in Massachusetts, and other commonwealths; and the famous little red schoolhouses date their inspiration from the public exercises that took place on the classic green in Boston. As the years have progressed, interest in the Boston Common has increased year by year. Details that appeared to be of slight moment in the early history of the country are now sought after. Whatever has taken place there or in the vicinity of it has become in a sense hallowed to the lover of liberty. The very great distance in time between the present and the early planting of Boston Common, together with the apparent neglect of chroniclers of events in connection with it, has made difficult the collation of facts respecting the time honored centre of Boston. The author has endeavored to faithfully and chronologically register the results of his researches in the following pages. Accuracy has been his one desire and care. It is that feature on which he bases his right to be heard, and on which he believes that his efforts will be of profit to the reader. To those who have aided him, either by advice or by their registered dates, he returns his thanks and acknowledgements.

Download or read book Development of the Easterly Portion of Boston Common in Relation to the State House Approaches Classic Reprint written by Arthur a Shurtleff and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Development of the Easterly Portion of Boston Common in Relation to the State House Approaches To denude the site and its approaches in an attempt to secure prospects from all sides would defeat the very objects for which a composition is sought. Objects which confuse the system of paths and roads leading to the edifice, and seem to make the approach difficult or eccentric, should be eliminated. Objects which lead the eye and the attention to the building, making it the center of a satisfactory composition, should be retained. Evidently an arrangement of trees, flanking structures, and approaches which are satisfactory for one edifice and site, might be wholly inappropriate or inconvenient for another building and its surroundings. The opportunities and novelties of each site should be seized to avoid the danger of repeating a stereotyped pattern. In all problems, the aim should be to secure appropriate visibility and convenient approach. These are important functions of a noble public building. Visibility justifies and rewards labor wisely spent to secure a structure of good appearance; ease of approach justifies and rewards the labor and cost of securing an adequate site. The reader will recall the efforts which are being made in the City of Washington to reclaim the territory lying in the line of site between the Capitol and the Potomac River. The condition in which this site was found when the Government Commission took it in hand is typical of the state of the ground before many of our public buildings. The territory was clogged with trees, criss-crossed with unrelated paths and roads, dotted with incongruous buildings, and crossed by a railroad. By the merest chance the comprehensive scheme which had been worked out a century before for the development of this district was brought to light. The Government Commission proposes to return to the original plan by removing the medley of trees in the center of the scheme, replacing them with an open space of grass bordered by widely parted rows of trees, which are to be backed up by rows of Government buildings. This great Mall is to form more than a mere decorative feature revealing the dome of the Capitol. The Mall will include the system of drives and paths which are to lead from the proposed Potomac bridge to the Capitol and which are to connect the buildings flanking the entire group of edifices. In other words, the scheme for revealing the Capitol building to the eye is an organic part of a scheme of approaches.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Oration Delivered in Boston, September 17, 1877: At the Dedication of the Soldiers and Sailors' Monument, on Boston Common They were animated by no fierce fire of ambition; no desire to exalt themselves; no expectation of attaining those rewards which are gained by great chieftains. They had no such hopes. They knew well that all the honor they could obtain was that general meed of praise awarded to all who serve faithfully, but which would not separate them from others who had been brave and true. No doubt, as the blood of youth was high in their veins, they looked forward, in some in stances, to the stern joy of the conflict; but beyond and above its tempest, fire, and smoke, they beheld and strove for the great objects of the contest.
