1843 (formerly Intelligent Life) is a digital magazine published by The Economist which features longform narrative journalism as well as shorter reads and columns. [1] Named after the year The Economist was founded, 1843 offers a complementary perspective to its sister publication, focusing more on narrative, rather than analysis. Like The Economist, 1843 is based in London and has a global readership. Like the newspaper, the magazine is owned by The Economist Group, a British media holding company. [2] [3]

History

The magazine was launched under the title Intelligent Life in September 2007 as a quarterly publication, having previously been a summer annual and was billed as covering "the arts, style, food, wine, cars, travel and anything else under the sun, as long as it’s interesting." [2]

In March 2016, The Economist Group relaunched and rebranded Intelligent Life as 1843 (named for The Economist's founding year). [4]

1843 magazine features contributions from The Economist's journalists, as well as writers and photographers from around the world. It is edited by Rosie Blau. [5] It is seen as akin to The Wall Street Journal 's WSJ. and the Financial Times ' FT Magazine. [6]

It has won awards for its journalism from the British Society of Magazine Editors, [7] the Association of Illustrators, [8] British Journalism Awards, [9] the Foreign Press Association Media Awards, [10] the Migration Media Awards, [11] Fortnum & Mason Food and Drink Awards [12] and the Travel Media Awards. [13]

In May 2020 it was announced that 1843 would move to a digital-only format. [14]
