History and profile

Vinduet was founded in 1947[3] by Harald Grieg and Nic. Stang. The owner is the publishing house Gyldendal Norsk Forlag.[4] Four paper editions were issued annually.

In the 1960s Vinduet adopted the eclectic thinking in dealing with literary work.[5] At the end of this period it was under the influence of younger leftist intellectuals.[5] The magazine presents fictional texts, articles about various kinds of literature, and book reviews.[6]

Editors-in-chief

Nikolaj Frobenius was the editor-in-chief of the magazine at the end of the 1990s.[7] From 2008 to 2013 Audun Vinger served in the post, and Kaja Schjerven Mollerin took over after him. Jan Kjærstad and Preben Jordal also served as the editors-in-chief of Vinduet.[1] As of April 2021 the editors-in-chief were Simen V. Gonsholt and Ola Innset.[1]
