Liskin-Gasparro, Judith

Traces the history of "The Modern Language Journal (MLJ)" editorial policies and practices as seen in the reviews section, traced mainly through the voices of "MLJ" editors. These editorial messages reveal the role of the editor in shaping the function of the reviews and also provide a window on the issues and events that each generation of editors deemed important enough to merit public exposure.
