anthropos 101.2006: 3-7 100 Years of Anthropos Anton Quack The first issue of Anthropos, a hefty 163 pages, appeared in the middle of February 1906. 1 From all sides it was very well received. First of all, as might be expected, it received good marks from those German religious orders and congrega tions who were directly or indirectly involved with mission work and their publications. Praise and approval also came from professional anthropolo gists. One of these was the French anthropologist, Arnold van Gennep, who wrote in his first review that he did not think anybody would suspect him of standing on the side of religious and missionar ies. He was well-known for being anticlerical and himself made no secret of the fact. Yet he hopes that Anthropos achieves what it promises. Indeed, he holds Anthropos up as a model for the various branches of anthropology to imitate and even, out of a sense of competition, to improve upon it as much as possible, all for the benefit of ethnography (van Gennep 1906; 317-319). A year later in a review of issues 2-4 of the first volume of Anthropos, van Gennep returns to his first judgement: “Les fascicules suivants de 1 Anthropos ont tenu ce que promettait le premier • • • Il est certain, en tout cas, que les quatres fascicules parus placent dès à présent cette revue parmi les publications ethnographiques du premier rang” (van Gennep 1907; 186 f.). 2 The first reviews praise the goal and intention of the new journal, which they welcome wholeheart edly, sometimes almost poetically, as in the case of Paul Staudinger in Zeitschrift für Ethnologie, a time-honored, already well-established journal. The same was true of Johannes Ranke’s review in Archiv für Anthropologie. Charlotte Burne was positive but somewhat more reserved in Folk- Lore as was Ferdinand Bork in the Orientalische Litteratur-Zeitung. It should come as no surprise that the Mitteilungen der Anthropologischen Ge sellschaft in Wien enthusiastically welcomed the new work of their enterprising and highly es teemed (“rührigen” und “hochgeschätzten”) mem ber “Prof. P. W. Schmidt.” 3 * 1 In a letter of February 11, 1906, W. Schmidt writes the following to Baron Georg von Hertling: “... because I wanted to send also the first issue of the ‘Anthropos’ immediately or shortly afterwards. The publication of it has taken longer than expected, but it should appear now on Tuesday or Wednesday” (cf. Rivinius 1981: 123). Baron Georg von Hertling was the president of the Görres- Gesellschaft from 1876 until his death in 1919. This society, together with the Leo-Gesellschaft in Vienna, gave substantial financial support to the new journal in the difficult early years (Rivinius 1981). 2 “The subsequent issues of the Anthropos have kept the standard promised by the first issue ... We take it, in any case, for granted that the four issues published have already assured this journal thus far a respectable place among the ethnographic publications of highest ranking.” Van Gennep’s review of the first issue of the Anthropos journal appeared in the Revue des Traditions Populaires (July 1906:316-319). W. Schmidt (1908:383) cites these encouraging words of van Gennep in a review of van Gennep’s own journal, Revue des Etudes Ethnographiques et Sociologiques, which appeared for the first time in 1908. Van Gennep’s review of the other three issues of the first volume of Anthropos quoted here appeared in the May 1907 issue of the same journal. 3 Cf. Staudinger 1906; Ranke 1906; Burne 1906; Bork 1908; Mitteilungen der Anthropologischen Gesellschaft in Wien 1906.
