Lawrence & Wishart is a British publishing company formerly associated with the Communist Party of Great Britain. It was formed in 1936, through the merger of Martin Lawrence, the Communist Party's press and Wishart Ltd, a family-owned liberal and anti-fascist publisher.〔(Lawrence and Wishart About Us )〕 It publishes the journals ''New Formations'', ''Anarchist Studies'', ''Renewal'', ''Twentieth Century Communism'', and ''Soundings''.〔(Lawrence and Wishart Journals )〕 ==History== Founded in 1936, Lawrence and Wishart initially became involved with the political and cultural life of the Popular Front, publishing literature, drama and poetry, as well as political economy, working-class history and the classics of Marxism. Post-war, the company published work from the CPGB's History Group, including early work by Eric Hobsbawm. Later in the century Lawrence and Wishart began its project of commissioning translations of selected writings by Antonio Gramsci whose work on the relationship between politics and culture has ongoing significance for the company. The first volume dedicated to Gramsci, ''Selections from the Prison Notebooks'', was published in 1971. The mid-1980s saw the publication of works by writers who brought the insights of cultural studies to bear on more traditional political concerns with ideology, politics and power, a field of research that ultimately led to the range of journals that Lawrence and Wishart now publish.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lawrence and Wishart」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
