The Publishing House

The Publishing House of the Institute of Literary Research of the Polish Academy of Sciences was established in 1990 and since then has published more than 500 titles. The books published by the Institute are addressed to both specialists – like literary scholars, critics, Polish philology teachers, men of letters – and to all bibliophiles and people interested in the wider humanities. Our books enjoy a good opinion among readers and are highly rated by professionals, as evidenced by several publishing competition awards, including:

• "The Most Beautiful Book of the Year" Competititon Award of the Association of Book Publishers in 1995 for the book Inni wśród swoich [Others Among Their Own];
