Cénit was a magazine which was founded by the exiled leftist Catalan political figures and published in Toulouse, France, between 1951 and 1996. Its subtitle was Revista de Sociología, Ciencia y Literatura (Spanish: Journal of Sociology, Science and Literature).[1]

History and profile

Cénit was launched in 1951 by the Spanish political exiles who had left Spain following the capture of Barcelona by the Francoist forces in 1939.[1][2] It was based in Toulouse and published by Confederación Nacional del Trabajo (Spanish: National Labour Confederation).[1] From its start to 1971 the magazine came out bimonthly, and then its frequency was switched to quarterly.[1] One of its editors was Federica Montseny.[3] Salvador Cano Carrillo, a Spanish militant anarchist, was among the contributors.[4] In 1954 the magazine received contributions from Benito Milla.[5] It folded in October 1996.[1]

The title of a Swedish leftist magazine, Zenith, was a reference to Cénit.[6]
