Launched in 1995, this publication series is, as it were, the GWZ0’s in-house brand. Aimed at creating lasting profiles of the cultural-studies field of East-Central Europe in the academic public, it serves both the centre’s identity as a whole as well as its individual research fields. The volumes were initially published in the Akademie Verlag Berlin, the Leipzig University Press, Franz Steiner, and Böhlau. From volumes 57 onwards the series appeares with Sandstein. All volumes from 52 onwards are also available in open access.

Studia Jagellonica Lipsiensa

Published on behalf of the Leibniz Institute for the History and Culture of Eastern Europe (GWZO) by Jiří Fajt and Markus Hörsch in collaboration with Winfried Eberhard, Adam S. Labuda, Christian Lübke, Ernő Marosi, Robert Suckale and František Šmahel.

Appearing since 2005, this monograph series is the flagship of the GWZO’s art-historical research. The series title Studia Jagellonica Lipsiensia stands for the integrative power of the Jagiellonian dynasty (14th–16th century); the far-flung Central European network of relationships, typical of its era, also serves to guide the publications’ thematic development. The volumes 1–18 were published by Jan Thorbecke and 19–21 by Böhlau. From 22 onwards they appear with Sandstein. All volumes from 19 onwards are also available in open access.

Visuelle Geschichtskultur [Visual Cultural History]

Published by the Leibniz Institute for the History and Culture of Eastern Europe (GWZO). Editing committee: Stefan Troebst, Arnold Bartetzky, Steven A. Mansbach and Małgorzata Omilanowska.

The series is programmatically oriented towards the »visual cultural history« research approach developed at the GWZO, which has reaped especially strong insights in regards to the national »Schlagbilder« (Aby Warburg’s term, c. »headline images«) of a governmental as well as party-political, civil society and religious nature. The volumes 1–18 were published by Böhlau, the volumes from 19 onwards by Sandstein. All volumes from 16 onwards are also available in open access.
