The Foreign Series of Herder Verlag by 1900: International Catholic Literature

  • Chapter
Book cover The Culture of the Publisher’s Series, Volume Two
  • 64 Accesses

Abstract

My goal in this chapter is to study Catholic literary series in languages other than German that were published and exported by the German publishing house Herder. I focus on the Spanish market as it was the main one for Herder’s foreign series. Yet my observations also apply to a much broader international market.
