PMLA: Publications of the Modern Language Association of America

PMLA: Publications of the Modern Language Association of America is the primary journal of the Modern Language Association of America (also known as the MLA). It publishes scholarly articles on language and literature.

Publication History

PMLA began publication in 1884 as the Transactions of the Modern Language Association of America. Volume 4 was the first to carry the "Publications..." title. The first actively copyright-renewed issue is April 1951 (v. 66 no. 3). We know of no actively copyright-renewed contributions. (More details) It is still published today.
