| Summary | "Graham's Magazine, Vol. XXXIV, No. 4, April 1849" is a collection of varied literary works produced in the mid-19th century. This edition features a rich array of content, including poetry, essays, and short stories, reflecting the interests and cultural discourse of the period. The magazine serves as a platform for both established and emerging writers, showcasing articles that touch on personal themes, historical reflections, and societal observations. The opening of this edition presents a fragment titled "The Poet Lí," which introduces the character of Lí, a gifted yet impoverished scholar living by Lake Tai-hoo. Despite his financial struggles, Lí possesses a remarkable talent for poetry and music that captivates those around him. His mother, Whanki, is a prominent figure in his life, and the narrative unfolds with Lí's interactions with the Mandarin Hok-wan, who recognizes his potential. The tale explores themes of filial piety, ambition, and the socio-economic barriers faced by the youth of that era, setting the stage for Lí's journey toward recognition and success in the imperial examinations. Through rich descriptions and cultural insights, the opening portion invites readers to delve into a story of aspiration against the tides of adversity.
