Sheets for literary entertainment

Leaves for literary entertainment was the name of a Leipzig literary magazine that appeared from 1826 to 1898. It emerged from the literary weekly newspaper that August Friedrich Kotzebue founded in 1818 .
After Kotzebue's death, the publisher FA Brockhaus acquired the sheet in 1820. It was not until 1826, however, that the magazine could appear permanently under a new name under Brockhaus' son Heinrich - the reasons were bans and censorship measures by the Prussian government. In 1853 the paper changed over from daily to weekly publication. Heinrich Heine , whose essay-like short story Die Götter im Exil appeared here in April of the same year, etched: These are the caves where the most unfortunate of all German scribblers languish and groan; who descend here lose their name and are given a number. At that time, however, anonymous articles and reviews were common in literary magazines. From the beginning of 1854 Hermann Marggraff led the editorial team, from 1864 to 1888 Rudolf Gottschall , then Friedrich Bienemann and from 1892 Karl Heinemann .
Biographies, essays on literature, cultural policy , visual arts and theater, as well as summaries of interesting texts from other magazines, including foreign ones, have appeared here.
