''The New York Times Magazine'' is a Sunday magazine supplement included with the Sunday edition of ''The New York Times''. It is host to feature articles longer than those typically in the newspaper and has attracted many notable contributors. The magazine is also noted for its photography, especially relating to fashion and style. ==History== Its first issue was published on September 6, 1896, and contained the first photographs ever printed in the newspaper.〔The New York Times Company. (New York Times Timeline 1881-1910 ). Retrieved on 2009-03-13.〕 In the early decades it was a section of the broadsheet paper and not an insert as it is today. The creation of a "serious" Sunday magazine was part of a massive overhaul of the newspaper instigated that year by its new owner, Adolph Ochs, who also banned fiction, comic strips and gossip columns from the paper, and is generally credited with saving ''The New York Times'' from financial ruin.〔("The Kingdom and the Cabbage" ), ''Time'', 1977-08-15. Retrieved on 2007-05-07.〕 In 1897, the magazine published a 16-page spread of photographs documenting Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee, a "costly feat" that resulted in a wildly popular issue and helped boost the magazine to success. In its early years, ''The New York Times Magazine'' began a tradition of publishing the writing of well-known contributors, from W. E. B. Du Bois and Albert Einstein to numerous sitting and future U.S. Presidents.〔 Editor Lester Markel, an "intense and autocratic" journalist who oversaw the Sunday ''Times'' from the 1920s through the 1950s, encouraged the idea of the magazine as a forum for ideas.〔 During his tenure, writers such as Leo Tolstoy, Thomas Mann, Gertrude Stein, and Tennessee Williams contributed pieces to the magazine. When, in 1970, ''The New York Times'' introduced its first Op-Ed page, the magazine shifted away from publishing as many editorial pieces.〔 In 1979, the magazine began publishing Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist William Safire's "On Language", a column discussing issues of English grammar, use and etymology. Safire's column steadily gained popularity and by 1990 was generating "more mail than anything else" in the magazine.〔("Language Maven Strikes Again" ), ''Entertainment Weekly'', 1990-08-10. Retrieved on 2007-05-22.〕 The year 1999 saw the debut of "The Ethicist", an advice column written by humorist Randy Cohen that quickly became a highly contentious part of the magazine. In 2011, Ariel Kaminer replaced Cohen as the author of the column, and in 2012 Chuck Klosterman replaced Kaminer. Klosterman left in early 2015 to be replaced by a trio of authors -- Kenji Yoshino, Amy Bloom, and Jack Shafer—who use a conversational format. "Consumed", Rob Walker's regular column on consumer culture, debuted in 2004. The Sunday ''Magazine'' also features a puzzle page, edited by Will Shortz, that features a crossword puzzle with a larger grid than those featured in the ''Times'' during the week, along with other types of puzzles on a rotating basis (including diagramless crossword puzzles and anacrostics). In September 2010, as part of a greater effort to reinvigorate the magazine, ''Times'' editor Bill Keller hired former staff member and then-editor of ''Bloomberg Businessweek'', Hugo Lindgren, as the editor of ''The New York Times Magazine''. As part of a series of new staff hires upon assuming his new role, Lindgren first hired then–executive editor of ''O: The Oprah Magazine'' Lauren Kern to be his deputy editor and then hired then-editor of TNR.com, ''The New Republic'' magazine's website, Greg Veis, to edit the "front of the book" section of the magazine. In December 2010, Lindgren hired Joel Lovell, formerly story editor at ''GQ'' magazine, as deputy editor.〔Summers, Nick. ("Inside the Media Hiring Bubble" ). ''The New York Observer'', January 4, 2011〕 In January 2012, humorist John Hodgman, who hosts his comedy court show podcast ''Judge John Hodgman'', began writing a regular column "Judge John Hodgman Rules" (formerly "Ask Judge John Hodgman") for the "The One-Page Magazine". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The New York Times Magazine」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
