JOHN DEWEY's
classic definition of the means-ends problem
was written in the late 'thirties when, although socialist ends were still
widely accepted by American intellectuals, the means of attaining them
were beginning tlO be questioned. ("Means and Ends is used by permission
of Mrs. John Dewey and the Dewey Estate.) ...
BORIS PASTERNAK's
essay first appeared in " Leningrad," a Russian literary magazine, at a
time when realism was the obligatory ideal of official literary criticism.
Pasternak obviously worked under rome handicap in having to write even
about music in terms of Socialist Realism.... We made two mistakes
in the last issue. The last paragraph of Marie Syrkin 's piece was dropped.
It appears on page 478 of this iss ue. And line 14 on page 284 of Susan
Sontag's theater chronicle should have read 'temporary man." The every–
manish hero (remember Willy Low-man?)'. We 're sorry.
