PMLA, the flagship journal of the association, has published distinguished scholarly articles for more than 100 years. Approximately 9,500 members of the MLA attend the association’s annual convention each December. The MLA is a constituent of the American Council of Learned Societies and the International Federation for Modern Languages and Literatures.
