| Summary | "The Philistine: A Periodical of Protest (Vol. III, No. 5, October 1896)" is a literary magazine edited by a collective known as The Society of The Philistines, published in the late 19th century. This periodical serves as a platform for commentary and satire, engaging with contemporary issues in literature, society, and culture, specifically targeting the artistic and literary norms of the era. It combines contributions from various authors, making it a rich tapestry of thought and expression reflective of the artistic movements of the time. The October 1896 issue includes a variety of pieces, each tackling subjects ranging from the struggles of literary creation to broader societal critiques. For instance, William McIntosh's piece, "The Literary Sweat Shop," expresses concern over the commodification of literature, likening it to a factory-like production that stifles individuality. Stephen Crane’s vignette, "An Ominous Baby," provides a poignant look at childhood innocence and societal barriers through the interaction of two children from different backgrounds. Other contributions in this issue reflect on themes of artistic ambition, mortality, and the philosophical musings inspired by everyday life, making the periodical a multifaceted exploration of the human experience during that time.
