Vox Romanica
The Vox Romanica is a Swiss professional journal for linguistics .
history
Jakob Jud and Arnald Steiger founded the scientific journal Vox Romanica in 1936 . The purpose of the magazine was to give Swiss Romance scholars, especially young professionals, their own independent academic mouthpiece. When Jud died in 1952, Steiger was solely responsible for publishing Vox Romanica until his death in 1963 .
As a result, the Collegium Romanicum took over responsibility for the Vox Romanica . This resulted in an editorial committee that selected Gerold Hilty , Carl Theodor Gossen and Toni Reinhard for the editorial office. After Reinhard's and later Gossen's death, Hilty ran the magazine, supported by the editorial board, until his death.
From 1939 to 1945 the magazine was only able to survive thanks to sponsors and foundations. The federal subsidies mediated by the Swiss Academy of Humanities and Social Sciences enable the Vox Romanica to continue to exist today . From volume 9 until 1990 it was published by Franke Verlag in Bern . In 1990 the publishing house was sold to Sauer Verlag .
The editor of Vox Romanica is Andres Kristol (as of 2019). The magazine of linguistics and romance philology appears once a year.
