Philological investigations

From 1880 to 1926 several monographs were published under the title Philological Studies , edited by Professors Adolph Kießling and Ulrich von Wilamowitz-Moellendorff . While Wilamowitz himself and his college friend Carl Robert provided most of the contributions in the early volumes (and some of them were edited in anthologies), the series developed into a publication medium for philological, archaeological and historical writings by Wilamowitz students during the Greifswald years.

Especially in the economically difficult times during and after the First World War , the series of philological studies , supported by funds from the Wilamowitz- Diels Foundation and the Notgemeinschaft , was an important organ of scientific publication. It was continued after the last volume by the series New Philological Investigations by Wilamowitz student Werner Jaeger .
