Da Vinci (ダ・ヴィンチ, Da Vinci) is a monthly magazine about books published by Kadokawa Corporation, launched in 1994 by Recruit Co. The first publisher was Yoshio Kimura, the editor-in-chief was Yasuhiro Nagazono, and the art director was Toshiaki Ichikawa.[1][2]

Overview

[edit]

Da Vinci is a book information magazine that introduces new publications, popular books and comics. The magazine also features essays by famous people, reader-submitted columns, questionnaires, special features on the relationship between the world and books from a new perspective, and a wide range of information on new paperbacks, new books, and new comics. It also includes information on approaching authors for book signings.[3]

  • Although it is a literary magazine, it is subculture-oriented, actively introducing not only general novels but also manga and light novels.[4][2]
  • The covers are mainly modeled after popular young actors, musicians, and celebrities, each holding the book they like best.[5]
  • It is the magazine that created the manga essay genre. The magazine selected Haruko Ohtagaki and Saori Oguri, who were not yet on the scene, to create a bestseller, and "Manga Essay Theater" was born from that.[6][7]

Da Vinci was previously owned by Media Factory. Kadokawa has acquired Media Factory since then.[8]

Da Vinci Literature Award

[edit]

The Da Vinci Prize for Literature was a newcomer's literary prize offered by Media Factory's (now KADOKAWA) magazine Da Vinci, accepting novels of 100 to 200 pages in 400-character manuscript paper. Any genre of work was acceptable. The winner received a cash prize of one million yen, and the winning work (or a collection of works including the winning work) was published by Media Factory (now KADOKAWA) .[9]

Other than the Grand Prize, the cash prizes were 200,000 yen for the Excellence Award and Reader's Award, and 100,000 yen for the Editor-in-Chief's Special Award.[10]

The contest ended with the 7th edition in 2012, and the Da Vinci "Story of Books" Grand Prize was established as the successor prize, limiting the content to "stories related to books.[10]
