Abstract:
Records of a socialist journal whose editorial focus included the social and natural sciences, literature, and the arts. Over half of the collection is comprised of correspondence concerning content, advertising, exchanges, circulation, and other business and financial matters. The correspondence, which deals with content and which spans the journal's existence (1959-1967), relates to editorial policy in general and to the publication of individual articles. Included are extensive exchanges with authors such as Herbert Aptheker, Noam Chomsky, David Dellinger, W. E. B. DuBois, Philip Foner, Eugene Genovese, Thomas Hayden, Langston Hughes, Corliss Lamont, Staughton Lynd, Herbert Marcuse, C. Wright Mills, Sidney Peck, Howard Selsam, William A. Williams, C. Vann Woodward, and Maurice Zeitlin. For the period 1965-1967, there are manuscripts of articles and reviews. The remainder of the collection is comprised of fragmentary business and financial records.
