From the 1700's until the present day, The London Magazine has played a vital role in the literary world.
First founded in 1732, The London Magazine appeared for 53 years as a counterbalance to The Gentleman’s Magazine. Re-launched in 1820 under John Scott’s editorship, The London Magazine championed the work of Wordsworth, Lamb, De Quincey and Clare, as well as the ‘Cockney School’ of poets. Welcoming the publication under John Lehmann’s editorship, T.S.Eliot saw it as ‘the magazine which will boldly assume the existence of a public interested in serious literature’.
Today The London Magazine continues to present the finest writers, artists and commentators working in London and farther afield. Nobel Prize winners and unpublished writers, renowned artists and neglected poets have graced the pages of The London Magazine. Our most recent issues have included such writers as Nicholas Royle, Penelope Shuttle, Anne Stewart, Tim Turnbull, Trevor Hoyle, Annie Freud, Roddy Lumsden, Graham Buchan, Leah Fritz, John Hartley Williams, Todd Swift, Martyn Crucefix, Tim Cumming, Dalgit Nagra, Andy Brown, Neil Curry and many more…
Consistently on the pulse of the literary scene, The London Magazine is a meeting place for the day’s greatest minds.
