The Sheldonian Theatre

Il y a un bâtiment historique en forme de forme, dans la vieille ville, qui peut être vu de nombreuses traces historiques. On dit que cela fait plus de 300 ans que le théâtre est resté, et que l'ancienne maison à proximité est aussi beaucoup.

Le théâtre Sheldon est situé à Oxford Broad Street, au Royaume-Uni, et a été construit entre 1664 et 1668 dans un bâtiment de l'Université de Oxford. Ce qui a été vu à Oxford est le premier à l'être. Le bâtiment a été nommé comme principal donateur, à l'époque le directeur Gilbert Sheldon. Il est utilisé pour les cérémonies de diplôme universitaires, pas pour la production de théâtres, mais pour des spectacles de taille plus petite.

I saw the wonderful performance of the Oxford Philharmonic Orchestra at Sheldon Theatre. I was deeply impressed by the orchestra and theatre. The ceiling and organ in the theatre were beautiful. The sound effect was very good. The graduation ceremonies of some colleges would also be held here.

Leaving the Sighing Bridge and before the Sheldonian Theatre, there is a row of ancient Roman philosopher statues on the front wall of the building, which is extraordinarily solemn, simple and elegant. Built from 1664 to 1668, this circular building is the traditional venue for the Oxford University Degree Award Ceremony. Thousands of Oxford students graduated from Oxford and went to all over the world, so it is also a place to witness Oxford's achievements. Theatre is also often used to hold public concerts. At that time, the hall seemed to be preparing for the evening concert. An old man was debugging a piano of an antique musical instrument. It has a keyboard for the piano and strings for the harp. Such a mixing structure is rare. The lofty theatre hall has three-storey stands, which are not big enough and have limited capacity. The huge ceiling depicts Christian pictures. It is said that this is a beautiful 17th century painting, reflecting the conquest of truth over ignorance. The main part of our tour in this theatre is to climb the observation deck on the top floor and look at the surrounding campus scenery from afar. There are all kinds of high spires, ancient and solemn buildings, ancient buildings, and people coming and going. Although we can't see the Oxford panorama from the telescope, we are shocked by the local momentum. This is the real Millennium Academy. This is the complete university city. This is the real dream. Combining the cobblestone roads, the adjacent colleges, the different styles of buildings, it's easy to understand why so many students from all over the world come to Oxford during the summer vacation. This is indeed a place of pilgrimage to higher learning institutions. If the conditions really should let students come here to feel for themselves, what they see and hear will definitely leave a deep imprint on the formation of children's world outlook.

Sheldon Theatre is another landmark building in Oxford City, near Trinity College. The theatre is a circular building, which is not very big in appearance and has no special mark. It basically keeps the same style with other buildings in Oxford City. It has a sense of age. But the wall decoration of the theatre is very special, and it is a sculpture of human head.

Founded from 1664 to 1668, it was designed by Christopher Reyne for Oxford University. The building was named after the principal financial supporter of the project, then principal Gilbert Sheldon. It is used for concerts, lectures and University ceremonies, not for theatre performances. The theatre is very close to Exeter College and Bodley Library where Qian Zhongshu studied abroad.
