View Full Version : Marxist literary criticism is dead

Are there any journals of literary criticism out there that publish papers written from a Marxist perspective? I don't even mean journals that are specifically Marxist but are at least open.

It seems Cultural Logic stopped printing a couple years back, and it was not really a lit journal anyway. Mediations is still going but it's mainly theory and philosophy with no lit-crit in the last few years' issues. The same goes for Rethinking Marxism. Have I missed something or have all the journals disappeared?

I can't answer your question, but it sounds to me like you've got a great DIY project on your hands. I'm sure at least one or two of the members around here would love to contribute to an e-zine along these lines... Maybe you could do it in a multi-contributor blog format. All you'd need is somebody techie enough to do the web design.
