Opis

As the primary source for important political and literary ideas from its founding in 1934 until the post-World War II era, the Partisan Review is a useful guide to the changing nature of 20th-century American socialism. James Gilbert uses the Partisan Review, Masses and Seven Arts to show how avant-garde literature became identified with radical politics and art, and how literary radicalism matured beyond the confines of Marxist philosophy and literary criticism.
