Overview

Apeiron Editori è nata nel 1990 a Sant’Oreste, piccola località vicino a Roma. Attraverso pubblicazioni d’indirizzo storico, sociologico e filosofico ha maturato, sia nell’ambito dello studio della storia dell’arte, sia su un piano più specificamente storico-letterario e biografico, un'indagine sempre più approfondita sviluppatasi, nel tempo, in diverse collane. * The Italian company Apeiron Editori (Publishers) was founded in 1990 in Sant’Oreste, the small Italian village half way up to the top of the Mount Soract (691 m.), made known to the world by the poet Horatius with these famous lines: “Vides ut alta stet nive candidum / Soracte nec iam sustineant onus”. ('See, how it stands, one pile of snow, Soracte! 'neath the pressure yield'.) We publish books on history, sociology and philosophy. Our history titels cover at the one hand works art history, on the other history of the ancient Roman world and monographs on modern history, including literary history and biography. Our catalogue is developed, according to the Italian publishing tradition, in a small number of series which you'll find on the website. Of some of our books we produce editions in other languages than Italian. The two originally Dutch founders - Gerrit Van Oord en Maria Korporal - may count on a network of loyal Italian editors and translators. And all of us are being guarded attentively by our two company cats Max and Paul.
