Aims & Scope

When it was founded in 1979, Zeitschrift Italienisch was the first academic journal in the Federal Republic of Germany to deal exclusively with Italian language and literature.

It is aimed at university professors, lecturers, teachers and students of Italian as well as all readers interested in Italy.

Italian presents contemporary Italian authors with interviews and original contributions.

In recent years, these have included Leonardo Sciascia and Gesualdo Bufalino, Luigi Malerba and Vincenzo Consolo, Luciano De Crescenzo, Susanna Tamaro, Andrea De Carlo, Umberto Eco, Antonio Tabucchi, Ermanno Cavazzoni and Valerio Magrelli.

Italian contains essays on Italian literature, contributions on linguistics and regional studies.

Here, German-Italian topics (e.g. travel and emigration literature), but also contributions on current political issues form the main focus.

The "Biblioteca poetica" is devoted to Italian poetry and its interpretations or translations into German.
