| Summary | "Punch, or the London Charivari, Vol. 107, October 20, 1894" by Various is a satirical magazine that presents a collection of humorous essays, sketches, and poems reflective of the late 19th century. As a quintessential example of Victorian humor, the publication continues a tradition of social and political commentary through caricature and wit, focusing on the cultural and societal quirks of the time. The likely topics covered in this volume include commentary on contemporary literature, politics, societal norms, and entertainment, showcasing the spirit of a rapidly changing England. The contents of this particular issue explore various themes, from critiques of new literary works to reflections on theatrical performances in London. Among the significant segments, the Assistant-Reader reviews the poetry of Anthony C. Deane, noting its sharp satire and diverse styles. The issue also addresses social gatherings, the nuances of clerical costume at church congresses, and whimsical portrayals of culinary passions through poetry.
