Austrian Studies Newsletter

The Austrian Studies Newsletter, an English-language publication appearing continuously since summer 1989, is a clearinghouse for information on scholarly activities and opportunities that includes lively, thought provoking interviews and feature articles offering scholarly perspectives on current events. Starting in 1991, ASN appeared three times annually. In 2004, this changed; a somewhat lengthier ASN is now published twice yearly (spring and fall). It is mailed free of charge to subscribers around the world, and is the only worldwide interdisciplinary publication of its type in English. Its continually growing readership consists of:

• students, who are introduced to interdisciplinary study of the region by receiving information about scholars, activities, and opportunities;
• scholars, who learn about international conferences, postdoctoral fellowships, archival holdings, and the work of colleagues in other countries and disciplines;
• an educated public, who learn about current developments in scholarship, current events in the region, and the relationship between the two.

The ASN was founded in 1989 under the guidance of Kinley Brauer, then acting director of the Center. Its founding editors were James O. Brown (now Professor of History at Elon College) and Suzanne Sinke (now Professor of History at Florida State University). Since 1992, Daniel Pinkerton has edited the ASN; since fall of 1994, he has done so as a full-time professional editor.

Archived Issues of ASN

Beginning with Volume 9 (1997), we have archived every Austrian Studies Newsletter online in Adobe's Portable Document Format (PDF) format, and will continue to do so. The mixture of feature-length articles, in-depth interviews, and attractive graphics is well-suited to PDF. ASN will look on the screen exactly as it does on the page, and a reasonable copy can be downloaded (although graphics may have a lower resolution, depending on your printer).
