EBooks, digital books, the future of books: An overview of current publishing experiments and strategy debates

Posted in : www.wischenbart.com    Thu, Sep 25 2008, 07:05

Within only a few weeks, I came across all sorts of news refering to big publishing conglomerates and small indiependent houses who launch or announced  new approaches to putting books onto the internet. And at the same time, a new debate about eventual... http://www.wischenbart.com/blog/?p=42

Blogging - the Elite Way

Posted in : www.wischenbart.com    Thu, Sep 25 2008, 07:04

Apologies for being a lazy blogger, but here I can report on a curious and multi facetted battle in German print culture. A few weeks before Jonathan Littell's originally French novel "Les Bienveillantes" ("The Kindly Ones") is due for release in ... http://www.wischenbart.com/blog/?p=37

The swarm and the fury: Newspapers battle against (not for) their audience in Germany.

Posted in : www.wischenbart.com    Thu, Sep 25 2008, 07:04

It is rare, at least in my observation, to see various pretty serious people - essayists, journalists of high quality newspapers, editors - really in rage to the point of denouncing all (presumed) adversaries squarely as 'childish', 'anti-journalists... http://www.wischenbart.com/blog/?p=36

Well yes, it IS unavoidable to write about HP7

Posted in : blog.wischenbart.com    Thu, Sep 25 2008, 07:04

So today, more than 48 hours before the official release date, the New York Times publishes a first review of Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows - and guess what, aside from, of course, not revealing the end (which, also a matter of course, everyon... http://www.wischenbart.com/blog/?p=24

About saying 'me' differently

Posted in : blog.wischenbart.com    Thu, Sep 25 2008, 07:04

I was really puzzled when I realized the amount of interest (and feedback) I had the other day with a piece written for Publishers Weekly about how autobiographies are classified in different ways in the AngloSaxon world, and in the rest of Europe: ... http://www.wischenbart.com/blog/?p=23

My loss

Posted in : blog.wischenbart.com    Thu, Sep 25 2008, 07:04

I don't need to tell you more than the fact that I lost almost my entire virtual capital on the betting scheme for the Ingeborg Bachman award (see previous post), while the crowd at large narrowed their focus in an impressive curve steadily onto the ... http://www.wischenbart.com/blog/?p=20

Those literary values - revisited

Posted in : www.wischenbart.com    Thu, Sep 25 2008, 07:04

Over dinner - or, if you prefer, during the past hour or so - I lost roughly 10 percent of my literary capital. Initially, I had 5000 $, provided by Riesenmaschine, a Berlin based fancy blog, to bet on the outcome of what is still probably the str... http://www.wischenbart.com/blog/?p=17

That hidden 3 bn dollar book market

Posted in : www.wischenbart.com    Thu, Sep 25 2008, 07:04

Book markets today have a reputation of being slow, flat, little exciting, except for those breath taking crime novels that top so many bestseller lists around the globe. Yet there is this 3 bn dollar niche market that draw little attent, if not b... http://www.wischenbart.com/blog/?p=12

What are you reading!

Posted in : www.wischenbart.com    Thu, Sep 25 2008, 07:04

Myself? At the Salon du Livre,I picked up a rather exotic reader (of 'editions errance') "La culture est-elle naturelle?" ("Is Culture Natural?"), reflecting about recent research in early (paleolithic and neolithic) human culture. I was puzzled that... http://www.wischenbart.com/blog/?p=7

Kehlmann - at last - not anymore Germany's #1 bestseller

Posted in : www.wischenbart.com    Thu, Sep 25 2008, 07:04

Bestsellers in Europe are strange these days. Since fall 2005, or for 78 weeks in a row, a novel about two learned men of the 18th century topped all the lists in Germany.  Last year in France, where traditions count probably more then anything else i... http://www.wischenbart.com/blog/?p=4
