Corsaren

Corsaren () was a Danish-language weekly satirical and political magazine published by Meïr Aron Goldschmidt, who also wrote most of its content. The magazine was based in Copenhagen, Denmark, and was published between 1840 and 1846.

==History and profile== The first issue of Corsaren was published on 8 October 1840 in Copenhagen. The first six months there were no fewer than six editors due to censorship issues. It was not until the 161st issue three years later that Goldschmidt's name was printed on the back as its publisher. In 1842 Goldschmidt was sentenced to 24 days in prison, a fine of 200 rigsdaler and future censorship.
