| Summary |
"The Philistine: a periodical of protest (Vol. I, No. 3, August 1895)" by Various is a collection of essays and literary pieces published in the late 19th century. This periodical serves as a platform for discussing and critiquing modern art and societal issues, emphasizing a protest against the conventions of the time. The contributors delve into various topics related to artistic expression, morality, and social norms reflective of the socio-cultural climate of that era. The content of this volume includes a range of articles and poems addressing significant themes such as the essence of art and its relationship with faith, the struggles of young individuals in contemporary society, and the trials faced by a soldier's son in the American frontier. Notable pieces feature discussions on the loss of genuine artistic inspiration in the modern age, the challenges of youth and marriage, and the poignant retelling of personal experiences that reveal deeper truths about love, honor, and human connection. The diverse voices found in "The Philistine" together illustrate a spirited yet critical examination of life and art, making it a thought-provoking read for those interested in cultural reflection from the 1890s.
