History and profile[]

Sur was first published in 1931,[1][2] with the assistance of a multidisciplinary team of collaborators. Its founder and main backer was Victoria Ocampo,[2] and it was supported intellectually by the Spanish philosopher José Ortega y Gasset. Many of the earliest editions of Sur carry the colophon of Ortega's . Notable contributors and sometime editors include Jorge Luis Borges, H.A. Murena, Adolfo Bioy Casares and Borges' Spanish brother-in-law Guillermo de Torre.[3] The last issue was published in 1992.[1][4]
