The Börsenblatt Wochenmagazin für den Deutschen Buchhandel, Börsenblatt für den Deutschen Buchhandel until 2002, is the association organ of the Börsenverein des Deutschen Buchhandels. Founded in 1834, it is the magazine with the largest advertising and circulation in the German book industry. It came out once a week at first, later twice a week and for many years even daily.

The Börsenblatt is published by Vorlage:Ill. It informs both trade and private readers about news on the book market. Since January 2013, the magazine has been published in weekly rotation as Börsenblatt Magazin and Börsenblatt Spezial. The Börsenblatt Spezial highlights trends within the various product groups.

Daily industry news is published on the magazine's homepage.

The Börsenblatt publishes various bestseller and bestseller lists, including the Hörbuchbestenliste, the Sachbuchbestenliste, the Vorlage:Ill with the best-selling titles from Belles-lettres and non-fiction as well as, since spring 2018, the independent charts of publications from smaller, independent publishers.

The editor-in-chief is Torsten Casimir, former responsible for the feuilleton of the Rheinische Post.

History

The Börsenverein der Deutschen Buchhändler zu Leipzig was founded in 1834 and became the property of the Börsenverein from 1835 onwards, bearing the title Amtliches Blatt des Börsenvereins (Official Gazette of the Börsenverein) on the title page. Printing was taken over at the beginning of 1835 by Vorlage:Ill in Leipzig. The Börsenblatt was initially published weekly, and daily from 1867.

In 1945, the magazine was temporarily discontinued.

In the western occupation zone, it appeared from 1945 under the same title (or Börsenblatt für den Deutschen Buchhandel) with the addition "Frankfurter Ausgabe". In the Soviet occupation zone, the Börsenblatt was published again in a weekly rhythm from 1946 onwards.

In 1990, both financial newspapers were published separately for the last time (Leipzig: 157th volume). Since the unification of the two stock exchange associations on 1 January 1991, only one Börsenblatt is published weekly.

In April 2020, the Saxon State and University Library Dresden made the volumes 1834 to 1945 available free of charge as full text.

Prize

In 1977, the Börsenblatt endowed the Alfred Kerr Prize for literary criticism, which is awarded annually.

Johannes Schmidlin

Johannes Schmidlin (22 May 1722 - 16 November 1772) was a Swiss pastor, composer and choir director. He founded the Vorlage:Ill in 1755 and is considered a pioneer of popular singing in 18th century Switzerland.

Born in Zürich, Schmidlin studied theology at the Collegium Carolinum and was a pupill of Johann Caspar Bachofen. Following his example, he published his own collection of sacred songs in 1752 (among others with texts by Albrecht von Haller), which was reprinted several times. In 1754, he became pastor of the parish of Wetzikon and initiated a music and song tradition there (the Vorlage:Ill), which spread throughout the German-speaking world as a popular movement until the middle of the 19th century. In 1755, Schmidlin founded a singing society, which at times had over 200 members, and is considered the first Vorlage:Ill of its kind in the world. A Collegium musicum was established in 1768.

In 1769, he published Schweizerlieder mit Melodien (poems by Johann Kaspar Lavater), which are considered the first secular song collection of Swiss content. In the polyphonic settings published by his pupil Vorlage:Ill in 1787, they became known throughout the country. Other works include sacred a cappella songs, solo arias and small cantatas.

In 1772, Schmidlin succumbed to a stroke at the age of 50 and died in Wetzikon. His successor Vorlage:Ill continued the singing society.
