The South African Journal, founded in Cape Town in 1824 by Thomas Pringle and John Fairbairn, was the first English-language magazine in the colony. A magazine, which like their other joint project, the South African Commercial Advertiser, was to provide a vivid overview of life at the Cape in those years, and would also suffer suppression and censorship from the Colonial government.


A valuable source on 19th century Cape Town politics, life and culture, it published regular theatre reviews and advertisements for theatre productions, invaluable sources for theatre historians.
