EspañolEDINBURGH REVIEW
The '''Edinburgh Review''' was one of the most influential British magazines of the 19th century. It took for its motto "judex damnatur ubi nocens absolvitur" ("The judge is condemned when the guilty is acquitted.") from Publilius Syrus.
Started on October 10 1802 by Francis Jeffrey, Sydney Smith and Henry Brougham, it was published by Archibald Constable in quarterly issues until 1929. The magazine began as a literary and political review and under its first editor, Francis Jeffrey the magazine was a strong supporter of the Whig party and ''laissez-faire'' politics, and regularly called for political reform. Its main rival was the ''Quarterly Review'' which supported the Tories. The magazine was also noted for its attacks on the Lake Poets, particularly William Wordsworth.
An earlier short-lived magazine with a similar title and purpose ''Edinburgh Magazine and Review'' (1773 - 1776) was published monthly but has no other connection to the later version.
The magazine ceased publication in 1929. The name was revived when a separate publication called The ''New Edinburgh Review'' was started in 1969 and published under that name until 1984. At issue number 67/8 it took on the ''Edinburgh Review'' name, with the motto ''To gather all the rays of culture into one'' and is still published. It is sometimes assumed that the present publication is a continuation of its namesake, a misconception which is not altogether discouraged by its publisher.
