There were at least 19 Jewish magazines in Austria which were all banned after 1938. [1] As of 2012 the magazine sector in Austria was under the dominance of Germany. [2] This influence decreased at the end of the 1990s, but it continued on the women's magazines and fashion magazines. [3] However, business magazines have not been subject to the dominance of Germany. [4] The major fields of Austrian magazines are news, popular science and special interest topics. [2] On the other hand, since the Austrian press market is divided between magazines and newspapers, magazines have a significant function in the press market. [3]
As of 2005 Austrian media company NEWS was dominating the magazine sector in the country. [5]

She was known as a prolific writer of "entertainment novels", and for this reason has sometimes been overlooked by literary scholars in countries where "seriousness" is at a premium. Her books dealt, above all, with the position of women, and in particular of women artists, in society and in the public sphere. Prominent themes included female homosexuality, set in the context of contemporary mainstream middle-class sexual morality.

Hans Hirsch was an Austrian academic who worked between 1903 and 1914 on the vast "Monumenta Germaniae Historica" sources project, and subsequently became a full-time professional historian.

The focus of his research and teaching was on medieval history. In parallel he built for himself a reputation as a specialist on the "Sudeten Germans", which marked him out as a more than averagely politicised historian. His application for party membership was still outstanding at the time of his death, however.
