The Hans Arnhold Center, a historic forty-room villa on the shores of the Wannsee and the home of the American Academy in Berlin, is both quiet retreat and hub of intellectual life, housing Berlin Prize Fellows and simultaneously serving as the location for Academy lectures, public readings, and concerts throughout the semester.

The American Academy in Berlin is located in Wannsee. S-bahns and regional rail trains run regularly throughout the day. For a map of the area and directions to the American Academy, located on Am Sandwerder 17-19, please click here.

The fall 2010 issue of the Berlin Journal features Martin Indyk on President Obama’s foreign policy; an early draft of Rivka Galchen’s opening to her novel Atmospheric Disturbances; James Wood on atheism in the modern novel; original photographs by Camilo José Vergara; H. C. Erik Midelfort on the Enlightenment’s inroads into Protestant Germany; David Gelernter on the “e-book plague”; Todd Gitlin on journalism’s current crisis; Stanley Corngold on the interplay of Kafka’s legal and literary writings; Brigid Cohen on composer Stefan Wolpe’s early advocacy of cross-cultural education; David Abraham on attitudes toward immigration in Germany and the US; and Martin Jay on the intersection, via Marcel Duchamp, of the practice of photography and the medieval philosophical concept of Nominalism.

Print copies magazine are available free of charge in the reception area of the Hans Arnhold Center.
