Graham's Magazine Vol XXXIII No. 3 September 1848

"Graham's Magazine Vol XXXIII No. 3 September 1848" by Various is a magazine from the Victorian era that includes different types of writing like short stories and poems, along with illustrations. It often discusses love, society, and art. One story, "Angila Mervale; or Six Months Before Marriage," starts with Angila Mervale, her mother, and her friend Augusta talking about love and what society expects. They discuss rumors about Robert Hazlewood and Mary Morton, and Angila makes fun of Hazlewood's looks. The story then shows how love can change people, as Angila starts to have feelings for Hazlewood, even though she didn't like him at first. This suggests that the story will look at how complicated love can be within the rules of the society they live in.
