The Andover Review was a religious and theological periodical that saw publication from 1884 to 1893. It was established by the faculty of the Andover Theological Seminary, following the relocation of Bibliotheca Sacra's publishing quarters to Oberlin, Ohio. The Andover Review was published monthly until its last year of operation when it transitioned to a bi-monthly format.

The publication defined itself as an advocate for “thoroughly progressive orthodoxy,” and its content was primarily contributed by the faculty members of the Andover Theological Seminary. The very first issue of the Andover Review is considered the most significant, as it established the journal's guiding principle—a modern and liberal view towards religion. This liberal orientation would later incite the “Andover trials,” a series of events that brought the Andover Review its greatest renown. These trials traced the evolution of the church from older Calvinistic beliefs to more contemporary religious views. Not long after the culmination of these trials, the Andover Review ceased its publication.

As for the other magazines you've mentioned, there's not much information available. Andover Bewitched appears to be an online magazine providing insights into the history of Andover, Massachusetts through a local lens, with a particular focus on true, relevant, and engaging stories. It has mentioned the Salem witch trials of 1692, highlighting that more people in Andover were accused of practicing witchcraft during this time than in any other town in Massachusetts.

Ampersand's Entertainment Guide was a magazine aimed at college students, providing articles about music, arts, and entertainment. The magazine was first published in 1977 as Ampersand, distributed as a free supplemental insert to college papers. It was renamed as Ampersand's Entertainment Guide in 1987, at which point it shifted to a quarterly publication schedule. Despite a successful run reaching 1.2 million students, the magazine shut down in 1989 due to difficulties with advertisers.

The Analectic Magazine was a publication active from 1813 to 1820, published in Philadelphia. This magazine offered a variety of content, including original reviews, biographies, analytical abstracts of new publications, translations from French journals, and selections from esteemed British reviews. It even had the distinction of publishing the first lithograph ever made in America in its July 1819 issue. Its readership included prominent figures like US President Thomas Jefferson. However, it ceased publication in 1820 due to the ill health of its editor, James Maxwell.
