The first issue of Revista Contemporánea appeared on 15 December 1875 in Madrid.[2] The founder was José del Perojo who also edited the magazine in the early period.[2][3] He was a political thinker.[3]

Revista Contemporánea featured literary articles in addition to those about humanistic and scientific fields.[2] In 1879 Perojo sold the publication to José de Cárdenas, and Francisco de Asís Pacheco replaced him as the editor of the magazine.[2] The ideological orientation was liberal until that event, and the magazine became a conservative publication.[1] When it held a liberal view, the magazine frequently featured articles concerning the emancipation of women.[1] From 1901 Juan Ortega y Rubio edited the magazine.[2] The last issue of Revista Contemporánea was published in June 1907 when the owner of the magazine, José de Cárdenas, died.[2]
