From 1949 to 2004, UNC Press and the UNC Department of Germanic & Slavic Languages and Literatures published the Studies in Germanic Languages and Literatures series. Monographs, anthologies, and critical editions in the series covered an array of topics including medieval and modern literature, theater, linguistics, philology, onomastics, and the history of ideas. The series was created by Richard Jente, the first editor of the series, who would serve as Chairman until his death in 1952. Subsequent series editors were Frederick E. Coenen (1952-1968), Siegfried Mews (1968-1980), Richard H. Lawson (1980-1984), Paul T. Roberge (1985-2000), and Jonathan M. Hess (2000–2004).
