| Summary | "A dramatization of Longfellow's Hiawatha: A spectacular drama in six acts" by A. L. De Vine is a dramatic rendition of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's epic poem "Hiawatha," likely written in the late 19th century. This work serves as a theatrical play that delves into Native American culture, showcasing their customs, characteristics, and spirituality through the lens of Hiawatha's life and adventures. The dramatic structure is organized into six acts that bring Longfellow's poetic narrative to life. The play follows Hiawatha, a legendary figure among the Ojibwe people, as he is called by Gitche Manitou, the Great Spirit, to unite the tribes in peace. The acts chronicle key moments in Hiawatha's life: from his childhood and his love for Minnehaha, to their wedding feast and the tragic events of famine and sickness that lead to Minnehaha's death. The final act portrays Hiawatha's poignant farewell to his people as he departs in search of peace and understanding, bringing a contemplative closure to the narrative. Overall, the dramatization captures the beauty and hardships of Native American life, as well as the themes of love, unity, and loss that resonate through Hiawatha's journey.
