==History and profile== {{Lang|no|Korsaren}} was established in 1879 by Jacob Breda Bull under the name {{Lang|no|Krydseren}}, mimicking an older publication of the same name. Until 1883, the magazine was published anonymously, from then on Schmidt was the editor. He ran the magazine until 1892. Bull sold the magazine in 1894, and it was relaunched as {{Lang|no|Korsaren}}.<ref>{{cite encyclopedia|title=''Krydseren''|encyclopedia=Store norske leksikon|publisher=Kunnskapsforlaget|location=Oslo|editor=Henriksen, Petter|url=http://www.snl.no/Krydseren|language=Norwegian|accessdate=25 April 2009}}</ref> It was published in Kristiania, its editor-in-chief from 1894 to 1903 was Egil Hartmann,<ref>{{cite encyclopedia|title=Egil Olaf Hartmann |encyclopedia=Store norske leksikon |editor-last=Godal | editor-first=Anne Marit | editor-link=Anne Marit Godal |publisher=Norsk nettleksikon |location=Oslo |url=http://www.snl.no/Egil_Olaf_Hartmann |language=Norwegian|accessdate=13 February 2016}}</ref> and its staff of caricaturists included Andreas Bloch and Gustav Lærum. In 1907, {{Lang|no|Korsaren}} got a sharper political profile with the Norwegian writer Hans Jæger and the Danish anarchist Jean Jacques Ipsen as editors. The corsair was to work against social democratic alliance politics and state parliamentarism. This organ came in ten issues, and was followed by Revolten, which came in eight issues.
