Summary "The Continental Monthly, Vol. 2 No. 5, November 1862" by Various is a literary periodical written in the mid-19th century. This volume features various articles and essays, notably focusing on American literature and national policy during the tumultuous period of the Civil War. The content reflects on the socio-political landscape of the United States, analyzing themes related to the causes of the Civil War and the impacts of slavery on society, among other topics. At the start of this issue, the discussion centers on the roots of the American Civil War, arguing that the conflict is the product of long-standing societal tensions, particularly surrounding slavery. The opening piece explores how historical events and influential figures, such as General Jackson, shaped public perception and political ideology around secession and slavery. The author elaborates on the various forces that led to rebellion, outlining the gradual build-up of resentment and division that ultimately culminated in war, emphasizing that the institution of slavery played a pivotal role in this tragic unfolding of events.
