  • The Masses Index 1911-1917
    The Masses Index 1911-1917 1 Radical Magazines ofthe Twentieth Century Series THE MASSES INDEX 1911-1917 1911-1917 By Theodore F. Watts \ Forthcoming volumes in the "Radical Magazines ofthe Twentieth Century Series:" The Liberator (1918-1924) The New Masses (Monthly, 1926-1933) The New Masses (Weekly, 1934-1948) Foreword The handful ofyears leading up to America's entry into World War I was Socialism's glorious moment in America, its high-water mark ofenergy and promise. This pregnant moment in time was the result ofdecades of ferment, indeed more than 100 years of growing agitation to curb the excesses of American capitalism, beginning with Jefferson's warnings about the deleterious effects ofurbanized culture, and proceeding through the painful dislocation ofthe emerging industrial economy, the ex- cesses ofspeculation during the Civil War, the rise ofthe robber barons, the suppression oflabor unions, the exploitation of immigrant labor, through to the exposes ofthe muckrakers. By the decade ofthe ' teens, the evils ofcapitalism were widely acknowledged, even by champions ofthe system. Socialism became capitalism's logical alternative and the rallying point for the disenchanted. It was, of course, merely a vision, largely untested. But that is exactly why the socialist movement was so formidable. The artists and writers of the Masses didn't need to defend socialism when Rockefeller's henchmen were gunning down mine workers and their families in Ludlow, Colorado. Eventually, the American socialist movement would shatter on the rocks ofthe Russian revolution, when it was finally confronted with the reality ofa socialist state, but that story comes later, after the Masses was run from the stage.

  • Early Years and Avant Garde Ideas the Little Review in Chicago
    LECTURE “Early Years and Avant Garde Ideas The Little Review in Chicago” ©Susan Platt first presented in conjunction with a conference on the Avant Garde in Chicago, sponsored by the Smithsonian Institution, 1988, published in The Old Guard and the Avant-Garde, Modernism in Chicago, 1910 – 1940, University of Chicago Press, 1990 While severe floods created widespread disaster in Illinois in the Spring of 1913 established cultural circles in Chicago battled a flood of another type, coming not from natural forces, but from the artistic world of New York: the International Exhibition of Modern Painting, known in Chicago as the Post Impressionist Exhibition, invaded the staid bourgeois cultural circles of the city. A self respecting matron and mother, reported to the director of the Chicago Art Institute, Mr. WIlliam French, who had left town for the duration of the fracas, that a distinguished "alienist,." (expert in insanity) had visited the exhibition declared the art to be the work of a. distortionists b. psychopathologists and c. geometric puzzle artists. Of the three threats to society the least frightening appeared to be the last. The matron was concerned, she confided in Mr. French, for the moral and mental well being of her daughter. Yet even as the bourgeois sector of Chicago feared for their lives and those of their offspring, another dimension of Chicago's cultural scene was enlivened and invigorated by this same exhibition. I refer not to the students at the Art Institute (many of whom violently opposed the exhibition as suggested by their burning of Henri Matisse in effigy) but to the literary and political avant-garde of Chicago in 1913.

  • 1 the Founding: Myth and History
    Cambridge University Press 0521838525 - The Provincetown Players and the Culture of Modernity Brenda Murphy Excerpt More information 1 The founding: myth and history HE FOUNDING OF THE PROVINCETOWN PLAYERS IS AN EVENT T that has grown beyond legend to assume the status of myth in the annals of the American theatre. Its significance is paramount because, as theatre historians have recognized, the Provincetown, with its nurturance of self-consciously literary American playwrights like Susan Glaspell, Edna St. Vincent Millay, and Eugene O’Neill, has come to represent a new conception of the theatre in the United States. The Provincetown is now seen as the major progenitor of experimental non-commercial theatre in America, the pioneering group that taught theatre practitioners how to develop, nurture, and practice theatre as an art in a country where theatre had always been almost exclusively a business. The growth of the Provincetown myth has been helped by the fact that, as Robert Sarlo´s has noted, ‘‘the group’s first stirrings remain a mystery, about which many myths but few facts survive. Accounts, even by participants, are contra- 1 dictory.’’ As early as 1931, the first published full-length history of the Provincetown, by Helen Deutsch and Stella Hanau, noted that the story of the founding in the summer of 1915 had been told so often that it was already assuming the form of legend: Magazines, newspapers, personal biographies, and histories of the thea- ter have carried accounts of the picturesque beginnings until even the phraseology

  • Science, Culture and the New Socialist Intellectuals Before World War I Mark Pittenger
    science, culture and the new socialist intellectuals before world war I mark pittenger In Max Eastman's Venture (1927), a roman a, clef about prewar bohemian radicalism and the I.W.W., a character based on Mabel Dodge embarks on a somewhat random quest for ' 'learning' ' under the guidance of a Russian Marxist intellectual. When ' 'Doctor Moses" suggests that she might find the social sciences most interesting, Mary Kittridge responds with amiable indiscrimination: "Well, social and unsocial ... I like them all."1 This representation of Greenwich Village radicalism as fundamentally trivial and dilettantish is a familiar one, and not least so from the writings of onetime rebels such as Eastman and Walter Lippmann. It is not a wholly accurate picture, especially with regard to socialists' interests in the sciences—social and otherwise. The scholarship on American socialism just before World War I has often failed to take seriously the ideas associated with the movement, and has tended to treat as a homogeneous and rather unoriginal group the disputatious array of radical intellectuals who attempted to put socialism on a new scientific footing. Writers associated with the Masses, the New Review and the Seven Arts have certainly been seen as interesting, colorful and even as leavening influences in a society struggling to shrug off its Victorian hangover and enter the modern age. But while it is quite proper to place them within the context of a more general upheaval in western culture, this is also to risk losing sight of their specific attempts as intellectuals to give new shape and direction to a political movement.
