Lingua Franca
|
- For the phrase, see Lingua franca
Lingua Franca was a magazine about intellectual and literary life in the academy. It was where the Sokal Affair was first revealed and its editors later published a book (The Sokal Hoax) of selected papers on the subject.
The magazine folded in the 2001 economic downturn. The following year, editor Alexander Star published the collection Quick Studies: The Best of Lingua Franca.
