About this Item

"Partisan Review" was a leading Political and Literary Journal, with articles and literature by some of the leading intellectual lights of the day. This is the Spring 1962 issue."Partisan Review", originally, was definitely left-leaning, but became "staunchly anti-communist" when Stalin took power. It remained, through its 69 years of publication (1934 - 2003) a forum for intellectuals and many of the world's top thinkers and authors contributed to its pages. This issue is, indeed, filled with top-level writing, incisive and thought-provoking, including a piece by Doris Lessing, and a letter from Paul Tillich on "Nuclear Morality".
