history

The cultural journal Die Güldenkammer , which is now also partly characterized as a literary journal, was founded in October 1910 and was initially published by Hauschild Verlag in Bremen . After the first year (1910/11) the entrepreneur and patron Ludwig Roselius took over the magazine from the October 1911 issue through his Kaffee -Handels-Aktien-Gesellschaft (Kaffee HAG) and ensured its continued publication. From then on, it was published by the Kaffeehag Bremen publishing house , which mainly published publications serving the public relations work of Kaffee HAG, and was temporarily supervised by the then advertising manager of Kaffee HAG, Alfred Faust .

The monthly magazine Die Güldenkammer was the first cultural magazine in Bremen. The editor was the culture journalist and writer Sophie Gallwitz ; Co-editor from 1910 to 1912 was the educator and author Konrad Weichberger . Gallwitz published around 50 letters and diary entries by the “ Worpsweder ” painter Paula Modersohn-Becker in the magazine in 1913 , which made her a significant contribution to her discovery as an artist and only made Modersohn-Becker aware of the art patron Ludwig Roselius and the public.

In addition, cultural contributions and literary works have been published by Giosuè Carducci (1913, translation into German by Rudolf Borchardt ), Hans Franck (1912, via Herbert Eulenberg ), Gustav Friedrich Hartlaub (1910, on the collection concept of the Bremer Kunsthalle in the run-up to the " Bremen artist dispute ") ), Gustav Pauli , Paul Scheerbart (1913, novella Marduk ), Johannes Schlaf , Georg Simmel , Curt Stoermer and many other authors.
