Die Gesellschaft was established by Michael Georg Conrad in Munich in 1885.[1][2] Conrad and Karl Bleibtreu edited the magazine until its closure in 1902.[3][4] The magazine came out weekly between its start in 1885 and 1891.[5] Then it was published on a monthly basis.[5] The first two volumes of the magazine were published by Conrad.[2] From 1887 its publisher became the Leipzig-based Friedrich Verlag which was owned by Wilhelm Friedrich.[2][6] Die Gesellschaft ceased publication in 1902 after producing 18 issues.[5]
Die Gesellschaft featured articles on naturalism, literature, art and public life.[3] One of its contributors was the German Georgist Michael Flürscheim who wrote about the program of the Land League.[1] Another one was Anna Croissant-Rust who published short fictional proses employing a naturalist literary approach.[7] Alfred Schuler was also among the contributors of the magazine.[7]
