Hermes is the annual literary journal published by the University of Sydney Union. It is the oldest such journal in Australasia.
History
Hermes was established in 1886.[1] The first issue of Hermes appeared in July 1886. Publication was suspended in 1942-1944, 1953, 1955, 1964, and 1970-1984.[2] Hermes is edited by current students and all content within the publication is provided by students, staff and alumni from the University of Sydney. While in recent years there have been themes for specific editions, the journal publishes written, creative and visual pieces. A special jubilee edition was published in 1902 to coincide with the University's anniversary.[3][4]
Past editors
Distinguished former editors of Hermes have included Thomas Bavin (1874),[5] H. V. Evatt, John Le Gay Brereton,[6] James McAuley (1937), Jock Marshall (1941), and a duo of Les Murray and Geoffrey Lehmann in 1962. In 2015 the Editorial team was entirely women: Elle Burchell, Pheobe Corleone, Madeleine Gray and Tahlia Chloe. [7]
