The magazine "Publications of the Modern Language Association of America" usually refers to "PMLA", which is the official journal of the Modern Language Association (MLA). Since 1884, PMLA has been dedicated to publishing academic articles in the fields of language and literature, which are considered of significant value to scholars and teachers.

PMLA is published four times a year, in January, March, May, and October, covering language and literary papers. In addition, September is the schedule for the MLA annual meeting. This journal is not only open to subscription agencies, but also accessible to MLA members. The editorial team of PMLA is led by Brent Hayes Edwards from Columbia University, and includes professionals such as Senior Director of Operations Strategy, Associate Editor, Assistant Editor, Advertising Manager, and Editorial Assistant.
