It existed in print from 1957 until 1973, and was re-launched online in 1998, and again in 2017. Its commitment to the progressive side of the political spectrum has been consistent, with an early stance for civil rights and against the Vietnam War. As one of the most influential literary magazines of the 20th century, it also debuted pivotal works by Samuel Beckett, Jorge Luis Borges, Charles Bukowski, William S. Burroughs, Marguerite Duras, Jean Genet, Allen Ginsberg, Günter Grass, Jack Kerouac, Norman Mailer, Henry Miller, Pablo Neruda, Vladimir Nabokov, Frank O'Hara, Kenzabur? ?e, Octavio Paz, Harold Pinter, Susan Sontag, Tom Stoppard, Derek Walcott & Malcolm X. United States Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas wrote a controversial piece for the magazine in 1969. Kerouac and Ginsberg regularly had their writing published in the magazine.
