| Summary | "The Continental Monthly, Vol. 5, No. 2, February, 1864" by Various is a historical magazine published during the mid-19th century. It features a plethora of articles concerning literature and national policy, serving as a cultural reflection of the period surrounding the U.S. Civil War. The magazine likely engages in critical discussions about significant historical figures, societal issues, and evolving political thought. At the start of the magazine, the opening article focuses on Thomas Jefferson, analyzing his life and political legacy through the lens of the turbulent political climate of 1863. The piece illustrates the stark contrasts in public opinion regarding Jefferson, juxtaposing the reverence of his supporters against the scorn of his detractors. It discusses his evolving views on key issues such as states' rights and slavery, highlighting his contradictions and the implications of his policies for the Union. Furthermore, the article suggests that Jefferson's doctrines have been appropriated and misinterpreted by various factions, emphasizing the complexities of his influence on American democracy.
