Summary "Harper's Round Table, May 12, 1896" by Various is a periodical publication written in the late 19th century. This work serves as a weekly magazine aimed at a young audience, offering a mix of stories, poems, educational content, and articles that celebrate and entertain. The magazine showcases a lively array of topics and includes fictional narratives, like "A Wild-Olive Wreath," which revolves around athletic competition during the ancient Olympic Games. The opening of "A Wild-Olive Wreath" introduces us to the town of Elis, bustling with people gathered for the Olympic Games. It focuses on a young athlete named Dion, who is anxious before his race in the dolichos. As his father, Glaucus, a former champion, expresses pride and concern for him, Dion wrestles with his fears and the weight of expectation on him to bring glory to their city. We witness the palpable tension and excitement as he prepares to compete amidst the reverberating cheers of the crowd, setting the stage for themes of competition, family legacy, and personal valor as he embarks on a pivotal moment of his young life.
