Boa Vista (literary magazine)

Boa Vista [boɐ ѵɪʃʈɐ] (Portuguese for beautiful view ) was a German literary magazine, founded in Hamburg in 1974[1] and published until 1983.[2]

The magazine came out at irregular intervals and produced ten issues.[3]

Approach and authors

With recourse to Dada, surrealism and the narrative forms of Beat – and Cut-up literature, Boa Vista entirely focused on experimental poetry and prose. Its regular or temporary employees included the following writers and artists :

gollark: That isn't really a goal. Virioids aren't going around thinking about their goals and how best to satisfy them. They just do things related to that due to the output of blind optimisation processes.
gollark: Things winning is often not determined by actual merit but unrelated factors and random chance. This happens a lot in computing, where a terrible standard comes first or is supported by big companies or something, and nobody can ever get everyone to switch.
gollark: I think it's just the sugar molecules on their own and presumably very concentrated.
gollark: I agree.
gollark: It's entirely possible to be consistent here. I would probably not like someone who only talked about their drug use whatever that was, but it's hard to say as I've never actually interacted with any.
