Dear Professor Kirklin,
The German Association. of American Studies has devoted its
annual meeting in Frankfurt/Main in June, 1964, to the contrib-
ution of German and Austrian refugee scholars on American scholar-
ship after 1933. At this meeting papers’ were presented by
Professor Louise W. Holborn on German Scholars in the United
States after 1933, by Professor Albert Wellek (Mainz) on contrib-
utions in the field of Psychology, by Professor Herbert Marcuse
(Brandeis University) on Philosophy and Sociology, and by myself
on History and Political Science.
In connection with the topic of this Conference, the Historical
Division of the John F. Kennedy-Institute of the Free University
is engaged in compiling a bibliography of scholars of German and
Austrian origin in the United States in the fields of History and
Political Science. According to the framework of the papers
presented at the meeting of the German Association of American
Studies, this bibliography is limited to those scholars who left
Europe in the years 1953 to 1945 under the pressure of Nazism.
It is meant to include also that younger generation of scholars
who having left Europe due to Nazi pressure, received their
university training in the United States.
I should be most grateful to you if you could let us kindly
know your scholarly publications (books and/or articles with the
exception of book reviews) which have been published in the United
States in the period 1933-1963.
This bibliography will be published, together with the papers
presented in Frankfurt last June, in the 1965 volume of the
Jahrbuch der Deutschen Gesellschaft ftir Amerikastudien.
Thanking you very much for your help, I remain
Sincerely yours
Lerobd Fe
(p¥or. Dr. Gerald Stourzh)
