The Levant Herald (1856--1914) was one of the English-language newspapers published in Constantinople by British subjects. Given the length of its lifecycle, which exceeded half a century, The Levant Herald was one of the longest lasting newspapers issued during the entire Ottoman period. Although it was published in Ottoman territory, it also circulated in Europe and Britain. Due to this, the newspaper had a somewhat international character. Throughout its lifecycle, it faced many suspensions, closures, and bans, and it suffered from regular political pressure. The proprietors of the newspaper changed several times during its lifecycle and due the regular threat of closure, it had to be issued under different names. The names that the newspaper used were as follows: The Levant Herald, The Constantinople Messenger, The Eastern Express, The Levant Herald & Eastern Express..
