| Summary | "The Atlantic Monthly, Volume 17, No. 102, April, 1866" by Various is a literary magazine written in the mid-19th century. This volume features a collection of essays and articles that explore a variety of themes, including literature, science, art, and political discourse. Among the highlighted topics is a piece reflecting on the last days of the English poet and author Walter Savage Landor, who is portrayed as a complex figure embodying both literary genius and personal struggle. The opening of this edition sets a reflective tone by discussing Landor’s death and the indifferent responses it garnered from the public. The text delves into insights about his character, acknowledging his literary contributions while examining the misconceptions surrounding his life and temperament. Notably, it illustrates the nuanced relationship between genius and ordinary human frailty, emphasizing the dichotomy of public perception versus personal experience. This initial exploration primes the reader for a deeper understanding of Landor’s legacy amidst the broader cultural context of the time. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
