About
The journal
known since 1968 as Modern Austrian Literature first appeared in 1961 under
the title Journal of the International Arthur Schnitzler Research Association.
Since then, MAL has established itself as a premier source of scholarship on Austrian
literature and culture extending beyond the borders of present-day Austria throughout the
former Habsburg Austro-Hungarian Empire. European and Asian interest in MAL has
grown over the decades, and the list of subscribers and the national diversity of contributors
testify to the truly international status of the journal. MAL appears quarterly
in print (in March, June, September, and December) and is also completely archived and available
digitally through the services of EBSCO.
