Hound & Horn, originally subtitled "a Harvard Miscellany", was a literary quarterly founded by Harvard undergrads Lincoln Kirstein and Varian Fry in 1927. At the time, the college's literary magazine The Harvard Advocate did not accept their work, so they convinced Kirstein's father, the president of Filene's Department Store in Boston, to fund the launch of their own literary magazine. Modeled on T. S. Eliot's The Criterion, it was intended to focus on student life at the university and work submitted by its students and famous literary Harvard alumni. Later on in its run, the publication broadened in scope to include many modern writers.

  • Hound & Horn (englisch für: Hund und Horn) war eine US-amerikanische Literaturzeitschrift. Sie erschien vierteljährlich von September 1927 bis Juli 1934, umfasste etwa 150 Seiten und erreichte eine durchschnittliche Auflage von 2500 bis 3000 Exemplaren. Der Name der Zeitschrift bezieht sich auf einen Vers aus Ezra Pounds Gedicht The White Stag (Der weiße Hirsch). Hound & Horn wurde von den Harvard-Studenten Lincoln Kirstein und Varian Fry gegründet. Nachdem , die offizielle Literaturzeitschrift der Harvard University, ihre Beiträge abgelehnt hatte, überzeugten sie Kirsteins Vater, einen Bostoner Warenhausbesitzer, sie bei der Gründung einer eigenen Zeitschrift finanziell zu unterstützen. Sie orientierten sich an T. S. Eliots Zeitschrift The Criterion und veröffentlichten hauptsächlich Texte von anderen Harvard-Studenten und Alumni. Bis 1929 trug die Zeitschrift den Untertitel A Harvard Miscellany. Danach, unter den Herausgebern Richard Palmer Blackmur, Allen Tate und Yvor Winters, löste sie sich von der Universität, verbreiterte ihr Spektrum und erschien ab 1930 in New York City. Die Zeitschrift enthielt Lyrik, Erzählungen, Reproduktionen bildender Kunst sowie Rezensionen. Sie stand der neu entstehenden literaturkritischen Richtung des New Criticism nahe und förderte die amerikanische Avantgarde-Literatur. Die veröffentlichten Texte stammten z. B. von Conrad Aiken, Elizabeth Bishop, Kenneth Burke, John Cheever, E. E. Cummings, John Dos Passos, T. S. Eliot, James Joyce, Marianne Moore, Katherine Anne Porter, Ezra Pound, Gertrude Stein, Wallace Stevens und William Carlos Williams sowie Bilder von Pablo Picasso und einen Essay des Fotografen Walker Evans. 1934 musste die Publikation eingestellt werden, da Kirstein die Zeitschrift nicht mehr unterstützte, um stattdessen den Choreographen George Balanchine und die School of American Ballet zu finanzieren.

  • Hound & Horn, originally subtitled "a Harvard Miscellany", was a literary quarterly founded by Harvard undergrads Lincoln Kirstein and Varian Fry in 1927. At the time, the college's literary magazine The Harvard Advocate did not accept their work, so they convinced Kirstein's father, the president of Filene's Department Store in Boston, to fund the launch of their own literary magazine. Modeled on T. S. Eliot's The Criterion, it was intended to focus on student life at the university and work submitted by its students and famous literary Harvard alumni. Later on in its run, the publication broadened in scope to include many modern writers. The title of the magazine was taken from Ezra Pound's poem "The White Stag": "'Tis the white stag Fame we're hunting, bid the world's hounds come to horn.” Contributions were made by writers such as Gertrude Stein, Katherine Ann Porter and a young Elizabeth Bishop. In 1928, R.P. Blackmur became the magazine's first managing editor, staying until 1930 when he resigned. Yvor Winters served as a regional editor. Allen Tate was the Southern editor until 1933. In 1930, the magazine moved headquarters to New York City. It ceased publication in 1934 when Kirstein decided to fund George Balanchine and the newly established School of American Ballet. It was the first to publish several writers who would later become famous, and to publish articles that would be historically significant, such as "The Reappearance of photography" by Walker Evans in 1931. Years after the journal's demise, Ralph de Toledano approached Kirstein about reviving it. Despite initial interest in Kirstein, the project never came to fruition. (en)
