"The Atlantic Monthly, Volume 01, No. 06, April, 1858" by Various is a literary magazine published during the mid-19th century, notable for exploring themes of politics, art, and personal reminiscences. This particular volume includes reflections on the historical period known as "The Hundred Days," when Napoleon Bonaparte returned from exile and attempted to regain control of France. It promises a rich blend of history, personal anecdotes, and cultural insights, appealing particularly to readers interested in historical narratives intertwined with individual experiences. The opening of the magazine introduces an essay that reminisces about the days of Napoleon's return, detailing the fervent patriotism and militarism that characterized the youth of Paris at the time. The narrator, a schoolboy in Paris, observes how his peers idolized Napoleon and dreamed of military glory, influenced by the excitement of recent conflicts and the presence of returning soldiers regaling them with their stories. The text evokes a sense of nostalgia and examines the impact of war on society, especially on the young, whose aspirations were shaped by the heroic narratives surrounding the Emperor. Through personal recollections and vivid descriptions, the piece sets up a contemplative exploration of the blend between history and the formation of identity amidst national turmoil.
