Magazine for Literature SCHRiTTE
Magazine for Literature
Founded in 1982 it was edited by Axel Dielmann, Klaus Hensel, Stefan Klamke, and Rolf Werner Kunz for 10 years – it was the root of the publishing house axel dielmann: Clamped in its own newspaper holders, 24 pages formated DIN A 3, the magazine was found regulary in cafés, the last volumes in 1.400 cafes nationwide. With the foundation of the book program it was not possible to manage that any longer. In 1996 there was a short comeback, but the books took their toll, it was not possible to publish 4 to 6 magazine volumes, while also looking after about 15 books per year.
RELAUNCH!
The magazine reached about 180.000 to 250.000 readers per issue at this time with its lyric, short prose works, excerpts from novels, Graphic Novel, excerpts from theatre plays, essays. And in authum of 2015 it is planned to bring them back in 540 cafes nationwide, to reach some 50.000 to 60.000 readers. The City of Frankfurt am Main supports the relaunch most friendly. – With each issue it's planned to bring the magazines into 80 additional cafés. At least two public readings in alterning cities should promote authors and texts.

Schritte
Zeitschrift SCHRiTTE (Magazine for literature) was financed by sponsors such as HONDA Germany and by adverts like that of Deutsche Bundespost (German Post). That is how it should be continued.
The large pages offer special forms of typo and presentation of texts. A long poem by Paulus Böhmer was extended throughout an entire volume; Flann O´Brien was designed as a comic in pannels; poems about things by Thomas Schwab were made product instructions … The list of authors so far contains for instance Herta Müller long before she won Nobel Price – it is a long list that reads:
