Lapham’s Quarterly is a magazine of history and ideas. Each issue contains one hundred extracts drawn from the vast store of world literature, art, philosophy, political history, and scientific discovery, from the ancient world to the present day, along with new essays by our most gifted writers. With the release of our latest volume, we celebrate the publication of our fiftieth issue.
