Dissent. Vol. 5, No. 3. New York: Dissent Publishing Association, Summer 1958. Wrappers, approx. 96 pp. Dissent was founded by Irving Howe and Lewis Coser in 1954 and quickly established itself as one of America's leading intellectual journals and a mainstay of the democratic left. This Summer 1958 issue falls in the magazine's fifth year, during the period when it was defining the independent democratic socialist position in American intellectual life — distinct from both Stalinism and Cold War liberalism.

His "Reflections on Literature" here is a characteristic contribution from his most productive period. Harold Rosenberg (1906–1978) — art critic and cultural theorist; originator of the term "Action Painting"; longtime art critic at The New Yorker. "Twilight of the Intellectuals" is an essay in his central theme of the intellectual's relationship to mass culture.

Arnold Hauser (1892–1978) — Hungarian art historian and sociologist; author of The Social History of Art (1951). Lewis Coser (1913–2003) — co-founder of Dissent and professor of sociology at Brandeis and SUNY Stony Brook; his exchange with fellow sociologist Edward Shils is a characteristic contribution.
