"Palefaces" and "redskins" edit

Shouldn't this mention his division of U.S. novelists into "palefaces" and "redskins"? Not very PC by current standards, but one of the things for which Rahv is most remembered. - Jmabel | Talk 07:09, 4 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Peacock terms edit

Along with the lack of references, this article makes use of peacock words (Wikipedia:Avoid peacock words). There are unreferenced claims that Rahv was "a beacon" of the New York intelligentsia, "noted" (by whom?) for his role in founding Partisan Review, and that the Partisan Review became "the most influential literary journal of the period." 96.35.172.222 (talk) 16:46, 28 December 2009 (UTC)Reply
