The Atlantic Monthly, Volume 01, No. 07, May, 1858 by Various
"The Atlantic Monthly, Volume 01, No. 07, May, 1858" by Various is a collection of essays, literary works, and articles likely compiled during the mid-19th century. This particular volume discusses themes of American antiquity, historical investigation, and the evolution of human civilization, particularly focusing on the native cultures of Central America and their historical significance. The opening of this publication sets the stage for a critical examination of what has been uncoveredabout America's ancient civilizations and peoples, contrasting previous notions about history with recent findings. It highlights the challenges faced by historians due to new discoveries that challenge established narratives. The text specifically references the French Abbé M. Brasseur de Bourbourg, who has undertaken extensive research into the languages and cultures of Central America, particularly focusing on the Quinames and their impact on history. This detailed exploration aims to shed light on the origins and beliefs of ancient American peoples, serving as a precursor to a broader discussion about the significance of language in understanding a nation's heritage.
