Gangway is an international culture magazine from Austria and Australia that has been published online by Gangan Verlag since 1996 . Gerald Ganglbauer is the founder and publisher .
history
On June 1, 1996 the internet magazine Gangway was published in Vienna , Graz and Sydney as one of the first journals in what was then a completely new medium. Originally published quarterly, there are now over 45 issues online, both in German and in English. The magazine focuses on authors in exile and emigrants (such as the editor himself) who present contemporary literature, poems, short stories and experimental prose "from abroad". Gangway is digitally archived by DILIMAG (digital literature magazines) at the University of Innsbruck as well as by the Australian National Library in Canberra.
After the publication of the anniversary edition Gangway # 32 - 20 years of Gangan Verlag , which was celebrated in the Literaturhaus Graz in June 2004, the Austrian-Australian dual citizen Ganglbauer changed the concept: “There are now many online magazines; and they come and go. In a rapidly changing virtual world, it seems essential to define yourself more clearly. The general focus of Gangway is therefore being shifted from bilingual Australians and Austrians to all those international authors who live abroad or in exile; provided that they are written down - or have been translated into - German or English. ”Since then, themed issues have been looked after by guest editors at irregular intervals. Book reviews, interviews and current special topics were also still published from time to time. In 2009, Twitter was integrated and an originally on Yahoo! Groups operated "writers coffee house" (discussion forum) replaced by a Facebook page.
In 2012, in the course of a complete redesign of the website and also due to Gerald Ganglbauer's move from Australia to Austria, the magazine was restructured into four sections: For new literature (magazines) and reviews of new books (book reviews) there was now a blog- like feature section ( Specials) with constantly updated cultural reports, as well as a section of new music (Music Reviews) in which the magazine introduces alternative musicians and indie bands, everything from jazz to rock and even pop. This turned the original literary magazine into a modern culture magazine.
In 2016, after 20 years of the show, gangway Magazine was again rebuilt and redesigned literary magazine Gangan Lit Mag (primary literature, new texts, new domain gangan.at ) from the gangway magazine (new domain cultural journalism gangway.at ) spun . Ganglbauer announced in a press release, however, that the literary magazine would be discontinued with the 50th edition (autumn 2017) due to illness, if there were no guest editors.
