prehistory

With the support of the Bavarian Culture Fund , the Working Group for Joint Cultural Work of Bavarian Cities e. V. a regional literature database should be set up. In 2008, with the “Database on Literary Bavaria” as part of the cultural studies portal “Bayerische Landesbibliothek Online” (BLO), local and localizable knowledge about literature in Bavaria was made accessible to a wider public via the Internet. The database established essential links to the Bavarian authors and originally started as a test version with around 170 authors' names from the 19th and 20th centuries. It was intended as a component of a comprehensive Bavarian literature portal.

The offer was expanded in the following years. In addition to expanding the author's lexicon, it primarily focused on the collection of data from literary estates . In a survey in cooperation with the General Directorate of the Bavarian State Archives , the Bavarian State Library, Monacensia, the Bavarian Archive Day, the City Archives Working Group of the Bavarian City Council and the Sulzbach-Rosenberg Literature Archive, the data was collected between 2008 and 2011. The inventory information has been continuously updated since then. On March 29, 2010 the literature blog Bavaria went online. As a beta version, it accompanied the development of the future literature portal and provided initial insights into the planned content.

On July 16, 2012, the Bavarian literature portal was finally activated during a press conference. "It brings us closer to the history of literature and shows the lively literary events of our time", judged the Bavarian Art Minister Wolfgang Heubisch on the occasion of the activation. The Bayern literary blog was incorporated into the Bayern literary portal, whose journal module (formerly: blog) has been part of it ever since.

The portal offers “information about authors from Bavaria's past and present, locations and events, bequests, funding opportunities and much more.

Links between places and topics provide further impulses to discover the literary land of Bavaria. "

In the "Authors" section, the reader will find the most important biographical and work-historical facts about writers who have shaped the literary landscape of Bavaria in the past or who make it up in the present. The author's lexicon currently contains almost 600 entries (as of November 2015).

Literary “magazines” are represented in the second area. Bavaria has already made a name for itself in the past through literary magazines, for example through the Simplicissimus, which accompanied the path to modernity, or through Akzente, the oldest still existing literary magazine in Germany. More recent magazines such as the literature in Bavaria that has existed since 1985 or DAS GEDICHT can also be found there.

Literary “bequests” are decentralized in many places in Bavaria. In a separate area, which includes more than 1,600 estates from persons and corporations in literary institutions, these are gathered and made accessible to experts and laypeople.

Historical walks and hiking trails in the footsteps of poets can be found here, as can the original version of the literary project “Streetview Literature”, which has not been available online since May 2015 and combines short stories by Munich authors and Google Streetview.

The category “Institutions” portrays non-commercial literary institutions in their full range: museums, archives, libraries, literary houses, but also smaller associations that enrich and shape literary life.

The “Prizes & Funding” section provides an overview of all the important funding opportunities in Bavaria for writers and those who want to become one.
