Italien was a monthly far-right cultural magazine published in Heidelberg between 1927 and 1944 with two-year interruption to reinforce the relations between Germany and the fascist rule in Italy. Its subtitle was Monatsschrift für Kultur, Kunst und Literatur (German: Monthly for culture, art and literature).[1]

History and profile

Italien was established in 1927 by Werner von der Schulenburg who was a sympathizer of Fascism and Benito Mussolini.[2] Its first issue appeared in December 1927.[3] Egon Vietta (pseudonym of Egon Fritz) developed the design and content of the magazine.[2] Italien was inspired from the publication of the German-French Association entitled Deutsch-französische Rundschau.[2] The publisher of Italien was Kampmann Verlag based in Heidelberg.[2] It was supported by the Mussolini government.[3] In 1940 the magazine ceased publication, but was restarted as the official organ of the association Deutsch-Italienische Gesellschaft (German: German-Italian Society).[2] In this period the magazine was supported by the Nazi government.[3] Werner von der Schulenburg edited Italien until 1943 when Albert Prinzing replaced him in the post.[2][4]

German diplomat Ulrich von Hassell was on the editorial board of Italien.[2] Some of its contributors included Margherita Sarfatti and Massimo Bontempelli.[2][3] The magazine featured articles on the Italian literature and other cultural materials focusing on Italy.[2] It folded in June 1944.[2]
