Historische Sprachforschung is an annual peer-reviewed academic journal covering Indo-European historical linguistics. It was established by Adalbert Kuhn in 1852 as the Zeitschrift für vergleichende Sprachforschung (Journal of Comparative Linguistics; colloquially referred to as Kuhns Zeitschrift) and obtained its present title in 1988. It is the second oldest linguistics journal still in publication and subsumes the former Beiträge zur vergleichenden Sprachforschung or Kuhn-Schleichlers Beiträge (1852-1874) and the Beiträge zur Kunde der indogermanischen Sprachen or Bezzenbergers Beiträge (1877-1906).
The current editors-in-chief are Alfred Bammesberger (Catholic University of Eichstätt), Olav Hackstein, and Sabine Ziegler. The journal is published by Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht.
