| Summary |
"The Little Review, March 1916 (Vol. 3, No. 1)" by Various is a literary magazine featuring a collection of essays, poems, and artistic critiques published in the early 20th century. This issue includes contributions from notable writers and poets such as Helen Hoyt, Margaret C. Anderson, and Amy Lowell, and touches on themes of art, anarchism, and the intersection of life and creativity. Readers can expect a blend of literary and artistic commentary reflective of the modernist movements of the time, providing insights into the cultural vibrancy of the era. The opening of this edition features a variety of works, beginning with Helen Hoyt's provocative poem "Cheap," which critiques societal perceptions of men and their production in a satirical tone. This is followed by Margaret C. Anderson's exploration of anarchism and art, presenting them as interconnected concepts that criticize conventional government and societal structures. Further contributions include Amy Lowell’s lively description of Igor Stravinsky’s musical pieces and insights from Sherwood Anderson about a man's internal struggles following personal scandal. The blend of poetry, critical essays, and bold artistic commentary sets the stage for a magazine that champions both literary innovation and societal reflection, making it a compelling read for those interested in early 20th-century American literature and art.
