Modern Quarterly (British journal)
Appearance
Modern Quarterly was the title of two separate unrelated left leaning journals published in the mid twentieth century.
- The American left leaning but unaffiliated radical V. F. Calverton published a politics and arts magazine under the name between 1923 and 1933.[1] From 1933 until his death in 1940 it continued as The Modern Monthly. It was notable for publishing opposing views within the same issue and supporting the work of black intellectuals. [2]
- A British Marxist journal of that name was founded in 1938 and was the first academic journal in Britain dedicated to Marxism. It was edited by the Welsh Marxist philosopher John Lewis from 1945-1953.[3] It was continuously published until 1953 when it became the Marxist Quarterly. It was closely associated with the Communist Party of Great Britain.[4][5]
