Summary/Abstract: The article presents an important aspect of the cultural life of Łódź in the interwar period 1918–1939, which was the local literary magazines that appeared at that time, especially in the 1930s. They created a modernization ferment and promoted literary trends and fashions that were current at that time. These magazines, in addition to presenting the achievements of authors associated with Łódź, tried to consolidate the Łódź literary community (especially the young generation) and initiate a discussion about the social obligations of literature, especially important in the environment of a large industrial center.
