The Adolf Moritz Steinschneider Archive (AMSTA) opens with these pages
a forum in which research results, information, texts and letters will
eventually be published. AMSTA in particular seeks to establish contact
with French and Swiss exile researchers and institutions .
AMSTA was founded in Frankfurt-on-Main in 1999 to encourage exploration
of the life and massive literary legacy of Adolf Moritz Steinschneider.
We anticipate the eventual publication of the letters from exile, as well
as Steinschneider's texts on politics and social philosophy. The focus
of the research is Steinschneider's legal and political activity in Germany
until his flight in 1933, as well as the periods of his Swiss and French
exiles.

née Fischlowitz.]
