At a 1966 international symposium hosted by the Johns Hopkins University, many of the leading figures of European structuralist criticism first presented their ideas to the American academic community. The proceedings of this event—which proved epoch-making on both sides of the Atlantic—were first published by the Johns Hopkins University Press in 1970 and are now available once again, with a reflective new preface by editor and symposium convener Richard Macksey.

Richard Macksey is a professor in the Humanities Center at the Johns Hopkins University, where in 1999 the Richard A. Macksey Professorship for Distinguished Teaching in the Humanities was endowed in his honor. Prior to his death in 1983, Eugenio Donato was a professor and chair of the Department of French and Italian at the University of California, Irvine.
