Summary "The Continental Monthly, Vol. 6, No 2, August, 1864" by Various is a periodical publication written in the mid-19th century. It contains a mixture of essays, articles, and possibly poetry that focuses on American literature and national policy during a tumultuous time in American history, notably the Civil War. The contents are likely to include cultural commentary and significant political discourse reflective of the period's concerns and ideologies. The opening portion of this volume presents a critique of contemporary American society, emphasizing the erosion of respect for authority, particularly in the context of political leadership during the Civil War. It argues that this societal deterioration stems from educational failings, which neglect to instill reverence for the law and governance in youth. The author underscores the importance of moral and religious foundations in maintaining a cohesive society and warns against the potential chaos arising from widespread disrespect for political institutions. The discussion is framed around a broader reflection on the need for reform in both education and societal values to cultivate a more respectful and unified citizenry.
