LITERATURE AND LIBERALISM is a comprehensive selection of that writing that reflects the temperaments and controversies that have earned The New Republic its reputation as one of America's leading journals of opinion. Among the distinguished contributors to this sixty-year anthology are Lawrence, Mansfield, Joyce, Hughes, Mumford, cummings, Updike, Cather, Bishop, Kael, Jarrell, Berryman and Santayana. In the Introduction, written especially for this book, Irving Howe analyzes the strains and interpretations of liberalism throughout American literature."
