| Summary | "The Quiver, 2/1900" by Various is a collection of illustrated articles and stories written in the early 20th century. The book encompasses a variety of topics including art and its relation to religion, narratives based on biblical themes, and fictional stories centered around daily life. Through its visually engaging illustrations, it aims to inspire a sense of beauty, truth, and moral instruction among its readers. The opening of this collection introduces a reflection on the importance of pictorial art in conveying moral and spiritual truths, particularly in the context of biblical illustration. It emphasizes the emotional and inspirational power of art, asserting that great artworks should connect with the viewer's heart before appealing to intellect. Following this, there is a transitioning into a fictional narrative featuring a young mother, May Burnside, and her daughter, Doris, navigating social challenges and financial constraints in a fashionable seaside town. The story hints at the societal pressures on women and the struggles between dependence and independence, setting the stage for the exploration of characters who may face moral dilemmas throughout the subsequent chapters.
