		Francis Jeffrey, editor of the Edinburgh Review from its launch in October 1802 until 1829, believed it was the reviewer's duty to subject authors to the "wholesome discipline of derision".
		By that stage, the Edinburgh Review was an institution, acclaimed by William Hazlitt as the "highest rank of modern literary society".
		Reviewing his career a few years later, the Scottish journalist Hugh Miller remembered Jeffrey as the instigator of a "mighty revolution in letters" which, if it had "lessened the number of good books", had at the same time "increased beyond all calculation the number of brilliant articles".

		Edinburgh’s Film Festival began in 1947 as a post war celebration of international documentary film.
		If the intention is to challenge us all to contemplate the legacy of Vietnam, as the film’s promotional material suggests, then something more is needed to connect with a younger generation and those new voters who, at the next presidential election, will have been born twelve years or so after the war ended.
		It’s one of the great virtues of the Edinburgh Film Festival that there is a commitment to try and rescue films of this kind from obscurity.

		The Edinburgh Review, in contrast, set out with a decidedly less populist agenda; its goal, as it explained in its first number, was to identify and pay serious attention only to works that it considered to be of solid intellectual interest.
