List Of German-language Authors
This list contains the names of persons (of any ethnicity or nationality) who wrote fiction, essays, or plays in the German language. It includes both living and deceased writers.
Most of the medieval authors are alphabetized by their first name, not by their sobriquet.
Editors familiar with contemporary German literature are particularly invited to contribute their input. If you add a name to the list, please also create an article stub.
