AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Encounter was a literary magazine, founded in 1953 by poet Stephen Spender and Irving Kristol. It was largely an Anglo-American intellectual and cultural journal, published in England. The magazine ceased publication in 1990. Spender was an editor until 1967, when he resigned. Encounter was most popular in terms of readership and influence under Melvin J. Lasky, who succeeded Kristol as Editor in 1958, and would serve as the main editor until the magazine ceased to publish. Other editors in this period included Frank Kermode and D. J. Enright.
