+The ''[[South African Opinion]]'' (or ''[[S.A. Opinion]]'') was an influentiual  literary-political periodical (1934-1937; 1944-1947).
 Originally launched in November 1934 by the editor [[Bernard Sachs]], it was initially an English bi-monthly literary-political review, dealing with local and international politics and the arts. In August 1937 financial difficulties forced the closure of the publication. However, it was re-launched in to close down. According to [[Stephen Gray]] (cited by Sandwith, 2008) it resurfaced briefly as ''[[The South African Spectator]]'' and ''[[The Democrat]]'', before being re-launched in March 1944 as a monthly publication, with "a more attractive layout, a wider pool of contributors, and interesting visual . material, that included hand-drawings, black and white photographs and wood-cuts, as well as dramatic and memorable cover pages depicting images of South African life, and some excellent political cartoons" (Sandwith, 2008:39).
-In 1947 it merged with another left-leaning bi-monthly critical review  called '''''[[Trek]]''''', seeking to combine the best of both publications. In 1950 however, the new ''[[Trek]]'' would focus exclusively on literary-cultural issues rather than political matters.
