history
The magazine has an eventful editorial history.
In 1894, Euphorion was founded by August Sauer , an Austrian literary historian . From 1914 he took over the publication together with Josef Nadler . Shortly before Sauer's death in 1926, George Stefansky replaced him .
From 1934 to 1944 the magazine was renamed to Dicht und Volkstum and edited by Hermann Pongs and Julius Petersen . The content was accordingly strongly nationalistic.
In 1950 the magazine got its old title again. The editors were now Hans Pyritz and Hans Neumann .
