Edition / DenkRaum

Research deserves readers.

Edition DenkRaum

You spent years researching it. A dissertation and a book for readers beyond academia are not the same thing. DenkRaum helps you find the book inside your research.

Editorial Review

Who is reading my dissertation?

Schrifton, Berlin

An editor reads your manuscript closely, considers its argument, structure, voice and possible readership, and takes responsibility for the assessment.

02 / Develop

DenkRaum Development

Development turns the Review into a working book concept. The session tests the architecture and sample transformation; the roadmap defines what follows.

Who it is for

Serious research.
A wider public.

For PhD researchers, postdocs, professors and independent scholars working in the Humanities, Social Sciences, Cultural Studies, History, Philosophy, Media and the Arts.

We accept dissertations, habilitations, research projects and academic manuscripts in German or English.

Editorial selection

Publication cannot be purchased.

DenkRaum Review and Development are editorial services. Publication is a separate decision. Only selected projects may receive a publishing offer from Schrifton, subject to a separate publishing agreement.

DenkRaum / Publishing

Development is not a promise of publication.

Edition DenkRaum is an independent review and development service. Schrifton’s publishing programme selects books separately; publication always requires its own editorial decision and publishing agreement.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a finished book proposal?

No. The Review exists precisely to discover what the book could be.

Is a positive publication decision included?

No. Neither €190 nor €890 purchases publication.

Which languages do you accept?

German and English initially.

Can I buy Development directly?

The public pathway begins with Review. Eligible or expressly invited projects may enter Development. €890 is the total pathway price; after a paid Review you pay €700 more.

What happens to my manuscript?

It is processed confidentially only for the booked editorial service. The file is normally scheduled for deletion 90 days after receipt. Upload details are provided after payment.
