Österreichische Gesellschaft für Literatur.

Kraus was the founder and head of the Österreichische Gesellschaft für Literatur, based in Vienna; Bronold and Urbach worked at the society and wrote on Kraus's behalf. Melnitz, Gregorian and Foltinek were recipients of correspondence concerning the reburial of Franz Werfel in Vienna: Melnitz, then a professor in Los Angeles, had been Franz Werfel's secretary in the last year of Werfel's life and was a member of the committee arranging the reburial; Gregorian, the Dean of Arts and Sciences at the University of Pennsylvania, helped arrange a grant from an Armenian-American fund to cover the cost; and Foltinek was an official of the City of Vienna heading the cultural office (Kulturamt).
