The Morgenblatt for educated stands (title from 1837: Morgenblatt for educated readers ) is the most important representative of a new type of magazine that emerged at the beginning of the 19th century .

It appeared from 1807 to 1865 in Stuttgart and Tübingen alongside the political Allgemeine Zeitung in the Cotta'schen Verlagsbuchhandlung publishing house , one of the most influential German publishers of the time.

General

The Morgenblatt was the leading literary entertainment organ in the first half of the 19th century with a circulation of 2,500 copies, including around 1,400 subscriptions.

The idea and concept for the four- to six-page and up to six times a week, newspaper-style magazine came from the publisher Johann Friedrich Cotta . The content was a diverse mix of travelogues, poems, memoirs, essays on literature, history, art and natural history, as well as reviews. Due to the large number of important employees, the magazine quickly enjoyed great success; hardly an important author of the time was missing from the employee list. The prominence of the employees led to a noticeable departure from the original principle of making the magazine's articles anonymous.

Side dishes

In the course of the publication there were several separately listed supplements:

  • Extra Beylage (1809-1823)
  • Intelligence sheet (1807-1851)
  • Art sheet (1816–1849)
  • Literature sheet (1817–1849)
  • Review of the latest literature (1809–1816).
