Hermenaut (1992 - 2001) was a a philosophy and cultural criticism periodical edited by American writer Joshua Glenn. It was self-described as "a zine that gives voice to indie intellectual thought... a scholarly journal minus the university, a sounding board for thinking folk who operate outside the ivory tower."
Glenn wrote a feature in each issue on a single "hermenaut" or "outsider intellectual," including Theodor Adorno, Philip K. Dick, Bruce Lee, Oscar Wilde, Abbie Hoffman, and Simone Weil. From 2000–01, Glenn published and coedited the online journal Hermenaut.com and hosted its online salon, the Wicked Pavilion. During this period Glenn was a contributing editor to the website Feed and to the British periodical the Idler.
