Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) In this study of two neglected New England poets, Alan Wald challenges the literary culture that has obscured the radical and Marxist heritage of American letters in our century.

The New York Intellectuals : The Rise and Decline of the Anti-Stalinist Left From the 1930s to the 1980s
ISBN: 9780807841693 / Angielski / Miękka / 1987 / 456 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) In contrast to other scholars who emphasize the affinity of the "New York Intellectuals" for literary modernism and its largely Jewish composition as its defining characteristics, Wald finds these traits to be secondary to the group's agonizing efforts in the 1930s and after to build a Marxist alternative to the official Communist movement. Wald presents an absorbing account of this misunderstood chapter in the history of literary radicalism and the Marxist intellectual tradition in the United States.
