E-text prepared by Malcolm Farmer, Janet Blenkinship, and the Project Gutenberg Online Distributed Proofreading Team
"Punch, or the London Charivari, Vol. 146, April 1, 1914" by Various is a satirical magazine published in the early 20th century, specifically during the years leading up to World War I. This work represents a collection of humor, political commentary, and social critique typical of the "Punch" magazine, which has a long history of addressing contemporary issues through wit and parody. The content primarily focuses on the politics and societal norms of the time, reflecting the cultural landscape of early 1900s Britain. The book features a series of humorous illustrations, poems, and witty observations on a variety of topics, including notable political figures and current events of the time. It employs satire to critique various social and political issues, such as the suffrage movement, military affairs, and parliamentary debates. Among the amusing sketches and verses, one can find commentary on the eccentricities of public figures, the absurdity of certain events, and the whimsical nature of fashion and leisure during that era. Through its combination of illustrations and clever wordplay, the volume not only entertains but also invites readers to reflect on the follies of human nature and the political machinations of early 20th-century Britain.
