Andhrimner was a literary and satirical weekly magazine, issued from January to September 1851 in Kristiania, Norway.

History and profile

Andhrimner was established in 1851, [1] as Manden ("The Man"), but was later renamed after Andhrímnir of Norse mythology. [2] Its editors were Aasmund Olavsson Vinje, Henrik Johan Ibsen and Paul Botten-Hansen. [3] Some of Ibsen's early literary attempts were published in this magazine, under the pseudonym Brynjulf Bjarme, such as his poem Bjergmanden and the parody play Norma .

Even though it was a literary magazine first and foremost, it was also noted for its satire. It is regarded as Norway's second satirical magazine, after Krydseren . [4]
