Marxism and Literature
The only portion of the indictment where my testimony could have any relevance would be in relation to the teaching of "the principles of Marxism-Leninism" through books and classes. In that connection two points should be made: (1) that these "principles" are very different from what the indictment implies, and (2) that no "principles" can be stamped out by suppression, and that it is against the whole American tradition of freedom of thought an…
Marxism and Literature
In the article devoted to F. O. Matthiessen's labor and political activities, in the Matthiessen memorial issue of MR (October 1950), the following passage occurs: "He agreed to appear as a defense witness in the Foley Square trial of the Communist leaders [the first trial of Communists under the Smith Act] and prepared a brief paper on 'Marxism and Literature' as a basis for his evidence.

Among the many new talents which made this decade one of the richest in our literary history, both realists like Sinclair Lewis and naturalists like Dos Passos we…
Needed
The very terms in which your article is cast are a sharp indication of how much ground the American Left has lost during the years of the cold war. We are back again at the point where we must urge discussion rather than action.

The Education of a Socialist
Whatever it may have been for others, Yale at the beginning of the nineteen-twenties was a major experience for me. If you came there from Groton, Yale's elementary courses were a let-down, since you had already been exposed to a richer cultural background.
