| Summary | "Harper's New Monthly Magazine, Volume 1, No. 2, July, 1850" by Various is a historical periodical written in the mid-19th century. This magazine presents a rich tapestry of articles and literary pieces, including essays and stories that reflect the social and cultural concerns of its time. It includes explorations of both well-known authors and emerging literary talents, alongside critical examinations of contemporary issues, such as the struggles of genius amid societal indifference. At the start of this volume, the focus is on Thomas De Quincey, highlighting his tumultuous life marked by brilliance and dependency on opium. The text outlines De Quincey's early life, his education, and the series of challenges he faced, including poverty and addiction. It discusses the societal failure to support such a gifted mind while lamenting the losses that accompanied his struggles. This opening segment provides insight into the complexity of literary genius and societal responsibility, setting the tone for broader themes of human experience to be explored throughout the magazine.
