| Summary | “The Atlantic Monthly, Volume 14, No. 81, July, 1864” by Various is a literary magazine published in the mid-19th century. This volume features a mix of essays, poetry, and articles that explore various topics, including personal narratives, critiques of society, and discussions on art and culture during a time of significant national upheaval due to the American Civil War. The magazine aims to provide intellectual discourse on contemporary issues, reflecting the social concerns and literary aspirations of the period. At the start of the magazine, the opening piece, “The Wife's Story,” introduces a deeply introspective narrative from a woman named Hester as she reflects on her life and marriage. The story unfolds around a pivotal moment in her life when her husband, Doctor Manning, reveals his financial troubles, prompting Hester to grapple with feelings of despair and the sense of lost ambition. Through her memories and observations, she conveys a struggle between her familial duties and her longing for personal fulfillment, illustrating the tension between personal aspirations and societal roles for women during that era. This excerpt sets the stage for themes of identity, sacrifice, and the complex dynamics of family life amidst broader societal changes. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
