The Double Dealer (magazine) : ウィキペディア英語版 | The Double Dealer (magazine) ''The Double Dealer'' was a short-lived but influential New-Orleans-based literary journal of the 1920s. ==History== ''The Double Dealer'' was established in 1921 as a platform for contemporary Southern writers of a modernist bent. Its founders were cultural critic Julius Weiss Friend (editor) and Basil Thompson, Albert Goldstein, and John McClure (associate editors). The magazine's title came from a William Congreve play of the same name that Thompson and Friend admired for its acute dissection of human nature.〔Bowen, Frances Jean. "The New Orleans Double Dealer, 1921-26." ''Louisiana Historical Quarterly'' 39 (1956): 443-56.〕 They saw their ideal reader as someone with a tolerant understanding of "the devious ways of the world".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=KnowLA: Encyclopedia of Louisiana )〕 With its subtitle ''A National Magazine for the South'', ''The Double Dealer'' positioned itself to combat a popular stereotype of Southern literature as a provincial and second-rate "Sahara of the Bozart," as H.L. Mencken termed it in a notorious 1917 essay. In a piece entitled "New Orleans, the ''Double Dealer'', and the Modern Movement in America," Sherwood Anderson laid out the editors' vision of a modernism that does not operate only at a national level but also embraces the cultural individuality of regions like the South.〔Kennedy, Richard S., ed. ''Literary New Orleans in the Modern World.'' LSU Press, 2006.〕 In pursuit of its inclusive vision, ''The Double Dealer'' published African-American authors, and an unusually high proportion of its writers were women.〔 ''The Double Dealer'' was published monthly from January 1921 to May 1926, during what has been called the first golden age of little magazines.〔Weddle, Jeff. ''Bohemian New Orleans: The Story of the Outsider and Loujon Press''. University of Mississippi Press, 2007.〕 Described as "an incubator of local literary culture and a conduit of Modernism,"〔 it featured work by a who's who of American writers, including William Faulkner, Robert Penn Warren, Allen Tate, Amy Lowell, Ernest Hemingway, Djuna Barnes, Carl Van Vechten, Babette Deutsch, Thornton Wilder, Hart Crane, and others. The magazine was one of the first to publish Faulkner (in 1922), and editor John McClure remained a Faulkner friend and sponsor for years after the magazine folded.〔Faulkner, William. ''New Orleans Sketches''. Carvel Collins, ed. University of Mississippi Press, 2010.〕 Although it only lasted five years, ''The Double Dealer'' influenced a number of later journals that took up the cause of championing Southern literature: ''The New Orleanian'' (established 1930), ''The Southern Review'' (est. 1935), ''Iconograph'' (est. 1940), and ''Double Dealer Redux'' (est. 1993 and published by the Faulkner Society).〔
