The Philistine : a periodical of protest (Vol. III, No. 6, November 1896)
"The Philistine: A Periodical of Protest (Vol. III, No. 6, November 1896)" is a collection of essays, poems, and short pieces that reflect the literary movements and cultural discussions of the late 19th century. Edited by Elbert Hubbard, this publication embodies the spirit of the Arts and Crafts movement which sought to promote individuality and creativity against industrialization. The book captures various themes including personal expression, the nature of life, and socialcommentary through its rich variety of contributions from different authors. The content of this issue features works by several writers, each offering distinctive perspectives. For example, "Karma" by Gelett Burgess delves into themes of consequence and desire, while Sarah Norcliffe Cleghorn's "Powers at Play" explores the struggles of a woman amidst societal expectations. "Our Friend the Enemy" by William McIntosh provides a critical take on the figure of Satan and his role in human affairs. Additionally, the section "Side Talks" presents lighter, humorous commentary reflecting on the human experience and social interactions. The blend of poetry and prose makes for an engaging tapestry that highlights the era's literary creativity and philosophical inquiry. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
