Abstract
The Arab press in Latin America was a phenomenon of great magnitude, with records of periodicals produced by Arab immigrants in virtually all Latin American countries that received significant numbers of Arab immigrants. Brazil, in particular, was one of the countries where this phenomenon was most prominent. This article aims to scrutinize the history of one of the most important periodicals within this context: The Journal of Andalusian League. This publication was a literary periodical edited in the city of São Paulo, circulated between 1935 and 1953. Created by a segment of Arab immigrants, the magazine sought to establish a space for the production and dissemination of Arabic literature, as well as to strengthen the cultural identity of the community. The periodical had three distinct phases: the initial years (1935-1939), the intermediate years (1939-1941), and the final years (1947-1953). Based on editorials published at key moments in the magazine's trajectory — its inception, hiatus, resumption, and conclusion — this study aims to trace the history of this significant periodical. Through the very words of the newspaper’s editors, it is possible to outline a chronological account of the major events that shaped the history of what can be considered one of the most important press vehicles of the Arab diaspora in Latin America.
