Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. 1912. First edition. xxviii, 91pp. Patrick Geddes (1854-1932) was a Scottish biologist, sociologist, Comtean positivist, geographer, philanthropist and pioneering town planner. He developed a means for engaging with the populace of a city through a civic pageant, and the Masque of Learning, in its original form, was a pageant prepared to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the foundation of University Hall, Edinburgh. It consisted of an historic pageant of characteristic scenes illustrative of the development of Higher Education, and of the origins and history of the University - each in its widest sense. The original Masque was revised, extended by the addition of new scenes, and developed into two parts: the Masque of Ancient Learning and the Masque of Modern Learning. Each is complete in itself, and this volume is the first of the two. The book is bound in the original green card covers with black titling and an illustration on the front cover and an illustration on the rear cover.
