Founded in late 2005 at the University of Chicago, the Gordian Knot is a student publication that, according to its manifesto, "publish[es] articles on art, religion, culture, politics, mysteries, and eccentricities of every kind, along with poetry, short stories, and drawings."

It has published two issues as of the summer of 2006 and publishes once a quarter while the university is in session. Article topics have included Gauloise cigarettes, the Pulaski Skyway, Micronations, and a fictional debate between Walt Whitman and John D. Rockefeller. The faculty advisor of the magazine is Malynne Sternstein, a Professor in the Department of Slavic Languages in Literature.

The Gordian Knot's motto is the latin phrase omnia mutantur nihil interit, which translates to, "All things are changed, nothing is lost." Its headquarters is located in Hyde Park, Chicago at The Mallard.
