Summary "The Knickerbocker, Vol. 10, No. 1, July 1837" by Various is a collection of essays, poetry, and articles showcasing various themes and subjects dominated by early 19th-century American culture. The magazine is likely reflective of intellectual and literary pursuits of its time, providing a platform for discussions on national pride, historical reflections, and literary critiques. This particular volume focuses on topics such as American antiquities and societal reflections, blending historical inquiry with contemporary opinion, while offering a taste of the literary styles and concerns prominent during this period. At the start of this volume, an essay titled "American Antiquities" engages readers with a passionate plea regarding the cultural and historical significance of ancient American sites that have remained largely unexplored and unappreciated by contemporary society. The author reflects on the richness of the land's past, invoking feelings of pride and concern for the neglect of these antiquities in favor of European historical interests. The narrative sets a contemplative tone that invites readers to consider the value of their national heritage and the mysteries surrounding the early inhabitants of the continent, thus awakening curiosity about further explorations into America's archaic past.
