Duration
24 months
Description
Four times a year, Lapham’s Quarterly, published by the American Agora Foundation, chooses an issue of national importance and assembles primary texts—essays, letters, and speeches—that put the issue in historical context. By maintaining a focus on a single theme in each issue, and by employing a wide-ranging and rigorous editorial process, the Quarterly brings together some of the most engaging pieces of literature, poetry, prose, and art, with the aim of fostering an understanding and a love of history in a generation of 21st-century readers. With renewed Corporation support, Lapham’s Quarterly will continue to reach new audiences through the popular World in Time podcast launched last year and the publication of special issues on contemporary matters, such as fake news and Alexander Hamilton, capturing the public’s attention.
