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 newspaper, the magazine is owned by the Economist Group, a British media holding company.
[2][3] 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.
[4] 1843 magazine features contributions from The Economist's journalists, as well as writers and photographers from around the world.
