"The Little Review, December 1915 (Vol. 2, No. 9)" is a literary magazine edited by Margaret C. Anderson, published in the early 20th century. This compilation features a diverse array of writings including poetry, short stories, and editorial pieces reflecting on contemporary social and political issues. With contributions from various writers, the magazine explores themes of art, politics, personal identity, and the human condition, encapsulating the vibrant literary culture of the time. The beginning of "The Little Review" presents an eclectic mix of works that set the tone for the issue. The first piece, "Hellenica" by Edward J. O’Brien, employs poetic imagery to evoke the beauty of ancient Greece, while "Sister" by Sherwood Anderson introduces a complex relationship between a brother and his artist sister, revealing themes of familial tension and societal expectations. Subsequent works tackle pressing issues of the era, including militarism in Emma Goldman's fervent piece, "Preparedness: Universal Slaughter," and personal struggles with identity as depicted in Mary Aldis's "Ellie." Overall, the opening portion offers a rich tapestry of literary expression, inviting readers to engage with the thoughts and emotions of its contributors.
