Beschreibung
Publisher's half leather over burgundy linen boards, spine in five compartments separated by gilt borders, gilt lettering in two compartments, gray endpapers. These are the six issues of The Dial from January 1920 to June 1920, bound together. Illustrated with numerous B&W reproductions. The Dial was an American magazine published intermittently from 1840 to 1929. In its first form, from 1840 to 1844, it served as the chief publication of the Transcendentalists. From the 1880s to 1919 it was revived as a political review and literary criticism magazine. From 1920 to 1929 it was an influential outlet for modernist literature in English. The Dial was re-established in 1920 by Scofield Thayer and Dr. James Sibley Watson. Jr. as a literary magazine, the form for which it was most successful and best known. Under Watson's and Thayer's sway The Dial published remarkably influential artwork, poetry and fiction, including William Butler Yeats' "The Second Coming" and the first United States publication of T. S. Eliot's The Waste Land. The issues in this volume represent the first six months of Watson and Thayer's leadership. Includes works by John Dewey, Sherwood Anderson, Bertrand Russell, E. E. Cummings, Conrad Aiken, Louis Untermeyer, Van Wyck Brooks, Llewelyn Powys, William Butley Yeats, Carl Sandburg, Marianne Moore, Ezra Pound, Amy Lowell, Edwin Arlington Robinson, Edna St. Vincent Millay, Hart Crane, Paul Cezanne, Odilon Redon, Kahlil Gibran, and many, many others. .
