Zweigstelle Heidelberg der Année Philologique
The German office of L’Année philologique, currently directed by Herr Prof. Ernst A. Schmidt, was founded in 1972 at the initiative of Viktor Pöschl, who remained its director until his death in 1997.
Originally funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, it now constitutes a research unit of the Academy of Sciences in Heidelberg. Since its inception it has been housed on the premises of the Seminar of Classical Philology at the University of Heidelberg.
