Summary "The Atlantic Monthly, Volume 14, No. 82, August, 1864" by Various is a periodical that features a collection of literary essays, reviews, and articles written during the mid-19th century. This installment includes contributions from notable writers of the time, like Charles Reade, providing insights into literature, art, and politics. Given the context, the magazine likely discusses contemporary societal issues, critiques of literature, and ongoing political matters, reflecting the thoughts and cultural environment of its era. The opening of this volume features an analysis of Charles Reade's literary contributions and style. The author praises Reade for his vivid, vigorous writing that captures deep emotions and strong characters, noting how he often intertwines humor and wit with dramatic narratives. A specific focus is placed on his novel "White Lies," highlighting its engaging plot and sharp character definitions. Additionally, the opening delves into critiques of Reade's approach to female characters, suggesting a certain misunderstanding of womanhood in his writings, which the reviewer seeks to address. Overall, the beginning presents a rich commentary on Reade's importance in 19th-century literature and the nuances of his creative methods. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
