About

Lapham's Quarterly is a literary journal edited by Lewis Lapham. Four times a year we collect fiction, nonfiction, poems, and essays from over four thousand years of history, all gathered around a single theme. www.laphamsquarterly.org

Mission

Published four times a year, each issue of Lapham’s Quarterly adopts and explores a single theme. LQ’s first four issues were dedicated, respectively, to War, Money, Nature, and Education, each created with an aim to help readers find historical threads from Homer to Queen Elizabeth I to George Patton, from Aesop to Edith Wharton to Joan Didion.

You can discover more from our Fall 2012 issue, Politics, and peruse our archives here:
