OUR COUNTRY AND OUR CULTURE
A new Partisan Review symposium
Have American intellectuals changed their at-
titude toward America?
Has Europe ceased to be the cultural stronghold?
Is mass culture inevitable in a democracy?
Can the serious artist survive in a mass culture?

These issues will be debated in the May–
June and subsequent numbers of Partisan
Review in an exchange which is bound
to rank in importance with our widely
discussed symposium. "Religion and the
InteUectuals."
Leading writers, artists and intellectuals
will examine the trend among American
artists in recent years away from Europe
as the source of cultural inspiration, and
toward a conscious appreciation of the
values of America and its past.
