Summary

"The Philistine: a periodical of protest (Vol. I, No. 3, August 1895)" by Various, is a compilation of writings from the 1890s that acts as a stage for arguments and analyses of the art and society of the time. The writings push back against the traditions accepted back then. Writers in this book write about different topics like art, right and wrong, and social expectations. It’s like looking into the past and seeing what people thought about important things back then, like what art really means and if it has anything to do with what people believe, or tough times for young people figuring out life and love, or even a soldier's son facing problems in the American frontier. The book has different points of view, but they all add up to a strong look at life and art back then, making it a good read for people who are curious about the culture of the 1890s.
