Publisher
Pax #1
Edition
First broadside newsprint edition. Short Title: Pax #1 / A Prelude: For the Feast of St. Agnes
Notes
Newsprint broadside. Pax was a "magazine" of poetry and art in which the work was the free contribution of the artists themselves "as their way of working toward an appreciation of the ideal of an enduring peace: the work of justice, the fruit of love". Pax was edited and published by Robert Lax (close friend to Merton) from the offices of Jubilee magazine starting in the mid-1950’s to the early 1960’s and was revived for a few minor issues in the 1980’s. This item is part of a portfolio in this collection of Pax items that contains the following:
