Summary "Harper's New Monthly Magazine, Vol. 3, No. 15, August, 1851" is a periodical publication compiled by various authors in the mid-19th century. This volume contains a diverse range of articles, essays, and stories that highlight topics of historical significance, societal observations, and literary critiques of the time. It offers readers a glimpse into the interests and concerns of society during this era, with pieces that explore figures like Napoleon Bonaparte, stories of domestic life, and reflective essays on broader cultural themes. The opening of this volume begins with a detailed account of Napoleon Bonaparte's childhood and the circumstances surrounding his birth in Corsica. The narrative delves into the early life of his family, emphasizing the political turmoil due to the French invasion, the struggles of his parents, and the foundational experiences that shaped his character. The text illustrates his mother's strong influence on him, his troubled relationship with his peers, and his early signs of leadership and ambition. The other section begins with the life of a young couple, Andrè and Julienne, exploring their seemingly happy marriage, which is disrupted by Julienne's growing curiosity about Andrè's mysterious evening absences and her subsequent visit to a clairvoyant. As the narrative unfolds, it sets the stage for potential discord in their relationship, introducing themes of love, trust, and the unforeseen complexities that can arise in domestic life.
