The London Magazine is England’s oldest literary periodical, with a history stretching back to 1732. The pages of the Magazine have played host to a wide range of canonical writers, from Percy Bysshe Shelley, William Hazlitt and John Keats in the 18th-century, to T.S. Eliot, W.H. Auden and Evelyn Waugh in the early 20th-century. Today – reinvigorated for a new century – the Magazine’s essence remains unchanged: it is a home for the best writing and an indispensable feature on the British literary landscape.
Our December 2019/January 2020 issue features Horatio Morpurgo on Extinction Rebellion, Jonathan McAloon on the artist Robyn Denny, as well as Simon Tait on Christopher Le Brun and the Royal Academy.
