Der Morgen (magazine)

For the German newspaper, see Der Morgen.

Der Morgen was a German-Jewish literary magazine published in Berlin from April 1925 to October 1938.[1] It was initially published bimonthly and then monthly. The magazine was founded by Julius Goldstein in the hopes of advancing the "spiritual destiny of German Jewry".[2] Its content included essays, articles, stories, poems, and book reviews, mostly by German-Jewish intellectuals.[2][3] The content covered a diverse range of topics including philosophy, history, psychology, religion, and politics.[2] Until 1933, when heavy government censorship was instituted, articles in Der Morgen often addressed Nazi ideology and antisemitism.[2] In November 1938, all Jewish publications were liquidated by the Nazi government and Der Morgen ceased publication.[2]
