The
new online magazine for the multilingual contemporary literary
literature of Berlin celebrated its first release in April 2017.
Berlin's living writers, who do not write their texts in German, are the
focus of the city's language magazine. Presented
at www.stadtsprachen.de will be 26 texts by 22 authors and more than
21 translators in 13 languages, from Arabic to Georgian to Yoruba! In the original and mostly with German translation the texts are also available in several languages like English, Spanish or French etc.
.
The
author of the first edition of the city's language magazine: Rasha
Abbas, Juhméké Bọlanle Adéyanju, Esther Andradi, Kevin Shih-Hung Chen,
Dario Deserri, Dmitri Dragilev, The Dung, Federico Federici, Iunona
Guruli, Andrej Hočevar, Tolgahan Kaftan, Kenan Khadaj , Göksu Kunak, Rafael Mantovani, Steve Mekoudja, Luísa Nóbrega, Denise
Pereira, Elsye Suquilanda, Menekşe Toprak, Kinga Tóth, Yimeng Wu and

.
The following edition of the onlie magazine is expected to be published on June 8, 2017. Further editions are currently being prepared. (The editors gladly accept text proposals and blog contributions from non-German-speaking Berlin based authors.)
.
The
central concern of the STADTSPRACHEN is to raise the view that German
literature is not only written in German (actually since centuries). The magazine finds out the most exciting authors and their texts of the multilingual Berlin literary scene by translating their texts
and make them accessible online as well as presenting them in regular
readings and symposia!

Welcome to a discovery trip to the unexplored literary treasures of the current Berlin literature scene! .
