The first issue of the Germanistische Beiträge was published in 1993. It was planned that the review should appear annually or twice a year according to the available financiar resources.
It is a specialized publication in the philological field, more exactly in the field of German language, literature, culture and civilisation.
It included materials written exclusively in the German language.
The editors of the current publication aim at the strenghtening of the scientific cooperation in the field of german studies, attracting both local germanists from Sibiu, as well as coworkers from the other universities in Romania, such as Bucharest, Timisoara, Iasi, Brasov and Cluj, as well as some from Germany: München, Marburg, Berlin, Bochum, Frankfurt on the Main, Paderborn etc.
A large part of the articles published in the 17 years from its appearance are materials presented in some symposiums and national and international scientific sessions which took place in Sibiu. The presence of quite a high number of germanists from Germany, Austria, Switzerland both at scientific events and with articles in our review, confirm the scientific level of our publication.
We hope that our review will continue to confimr the important role of the germanistic studies in Sibiu for this branch of studies at an European levels.
The germanists in Sibiu participate in numerous research projects, in partnership with universities from Germany, our publication granting them the possibility of publishing the results of their research.
Last but not least, we are involved in research and a number of young colleagues and doctorands publish parts of their research until the finishing of their doctoral research.
We wish that the research should be a challange for all of us and we intend to attract some valuable elements from the student researchers, especially from those who study for a masters degree.
We are asking that articles or letters should be addressed to:
