Summary "The Contemporary Review, Volume 36, November 1879" by Various is a collection of essays and articles published in the late 19th century. Comprising a variety of subjects, the volume includes discussions on individual liberty, social reform, and historical analysis, highlighting pressing political and philosophical themes of the era. The book serves as a reflection of contemporary thought within England, discussing figures like John Stuart Mill and political movements relevant to the time. At the start of this volume, the focus is placed on freedom and individualism, particularly through a discourse inspired by John Stuart Mill's essay "On Liberty." It addresses the evolution of societal views on personal liberty, commenting on the historical context of Mill's arguments and their resonance in contemporary society. The text elaborates on the tension between individual rights and societal pressures, suggesting that while significant progress has been made since Mill’s time, the dangers of uniformity and social conformity remain pertinent issues that warrant attention and contemplation.
