Summary "Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine, Vol. 93, No. 571, May, 1863" is a historical literary magazine published in the mid-19th century. It features a collection of essays and articles that engage with various themes, touching on subjects ranging from art and archaeology to accounts of historical figures and cultural commentary. Each contributing writer offers unique insights, contextual reflections, and examinations that reflect the societal concerns and intellectual movements of the time. The beginning of this volume presents a detailed examination of Mr. Wilson’s work on "Prehistoric Man," which explores the early stages of human civilization and the development of culture, particularly in the Americas. It discusses the challenges of interpreting archaeological evidence and questions the understanding of man's historical presence. The introduction suggests that the evidence presented by Wilson, while rich and informative, is hindered by its disorganized structure and rhetorical excess. Ultimately, it calls for a careful consideration of the materials available and the implications for understanding humanity's past, setting the stage for a deeper exploration throughout the magazine.
