It was founded by Gustave Kahn, managing editor, Paul Adam, editorial secretary, and Jean Moreas, editor-in-chief. Many writers and intellectuals contributed to the lively debate contained in its pages. The aim of the following article is to point out the importance the magazine had in the literary revolution of Symbolism by offering a detailed analysis of the contributions made by all those who worked on the journal. This analysis helps us understand the construction process of the Symbolist movement aesthetics and appreciate the varied character it showed from the very start.
