Arizona Quarterly: A Journal of American Literature, Culture, and Theory is a peer-reviewed academic literary journal created at the University of Arizona in 1945. Published four times per year, its self-proclaimed mission is to "subject ['American literature, culture and theory'] to debate, argument, interpretation, contestation via critical readings of primary texts".[1] Most issues of the Quarterly consist of seven articles, and special issues are rarely published (e.g. Summer 2014: Migration and Movement(s) in Chicano/a Literature).[2] As of 2020 the editor is Lynda Zwinger.[1][2]

During the early years of Arizona Quarterly, through 1958, there was no standalone historical journal in the state, leaving the Quarterly to publish a number of historical articles.[3] Zwinger served as one of two associate editors under former Quarterly editor Edgar A. Dryden.[4]
