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]
