"The Little Review, January 1917 (Vol. 3, No. 8) by Various" is a literary magazine issue from the early 20th century. It is a modernist arts-and-letters periodical that mixes essays, criticism, poetry, and a retold tale. The issue’s likely focus is the meaning and function of art—how to judge it, how artists work, and how audiences mistake emotion, truth, and taste for art itself. The issue opens with Margaret C. Anderson’s The Great Emotional Mind, a bracing catalogue of popular fallacies about art and a defense of art as the deliberate, selective expression of personality. Eunice Tietjens’s Chinoiseries offers brief, vivid poems drawn from Chinese history and legend. A suite of cultural columns by “jh.” ranges from a fervent celebration of Mary Garden’s total art in grand opera to reflections on Tagore’s lecture (“What Is Art?”), critiques of stage design, a defense of George Moore’s artistic license, notes on A. E.’s paintings, a cameo of Fritz Kreisler as pianist, and quick takes on Sargent, Dearth, Henri, Bellows, Sloan, and Szukalski. “Huppdiwupp,” a tender Christmas tale retold from the German, follows poor Friedel and his carved horse to a visionary meeting with the Christ-child that blesses creative gift over money. The Reader Critic section stages sharp debates: a soldier’s demand for art that serves desire and action versus Anderson’s rebuttal; exchanges on “miracle,” beauty, and form; pleas for social vision set against the editors’ insistence on form; a satirical urban triptych (“Murine and Koka-Kola”) with editorial pushback; and a spirited quarrel over Sherwood Anderson’s novel. Notices, a statement of ownership, and ads close the number. (This is an automatically generated summary.) Originally published: Chicago, New York: Margaret C.
