Summary "The International Magazine, Volume 4, No. 2, September 1851" by Various is a collection of essays and articles published in the mid-19th century. This volume covers a range of topics related to literature, art, and science, reflecting the intellectual and cultural currents of the time. It includes discussions on institutions for sailors in New York, critiques of American literature, and insights into various societal and cultural practices. The opening of the magazine presents a detailed overview of maritime institutions in New York, highlighting their significance for sailors and the benevolent efforts to improve their living conditions. It emphasizes New York's rapid growth as a maritime city and the establishment of various charitable institutions aimed at aiding seamen, such as hospitals, homes, and retreats. The lengthy exploration of quarantine practices and the unique significance of these institutions paints a picture of a city grappling with its growing commercial identity while also striving to care for its essential workforce, the sailors, who link the city to the wider world.
