Summary "The Atlantic Monthly, Volume 17, No. 103, May, 1866" by Various is a literary magazine published in the mid-19th century. This volume contains a range of articles and stories that reflect on various themes including literature, politics, and social issues of the time. Notably, the opening portion discusses the life and thoughts of a character named Zachary Humphreys, who appears to grapple with the contrasting values of commerce and ideals in a society dictated by transactional relationships. The opening of this volume presents an introspective narrative where Zachary engages in a philosophical dialogue with his more pragmatic brother Josiah. As he contemplates his own marginalized existence as a clerk, Zachary reflects on his aspirations beyond the commercial grind, ignited by memories of an inspiring figure named Knowles. This opening section intricately weaves themes of ambition, family dynamics, and the quest for meaning in a world dominated by capitalistic ideals. Zachary’s thoughts reveal an emotional struggle between seeking personal fulfillment and reconciling with societal expectations, setting the stage for deeper explorations within the volume.
