Königshausen + Neumann GmbH
The publishing house Königshausen & Neumann was founded in 1979 by the students Johannes Königshausen and Thomas Neumann and has quickly developed into a well-known publishing house for the Humanities in a national and international context. Today we have a backlist of more than 7,000 available (!) titles, with a focus on philosophy, literature and cultural studies, history, psychology, music and art. Our aim is to accompany developments in science with publications and to make developments in science visible and accessible as such in the first place. We want to be an echo chamber not of one thought, but of a plurality of thoughts. Wittgenstein's followers, for example, are represented in our programme, as are his critics. Our authors include philosophers such as Gernot Böhme, Otto Friedrich Bollnow, Karen Gloy, Friedrich-Wilhelm von Herrmann, Vittorio Hösle and Peter Sloterdijk, and literary and linguistic scholars such as Dieter Borchmeyer, Karl Corino, Ulrich Gaier, Walter Hinderer and Volker Klotz, Wolfgang Müller-Funk, Wolfgang Riedel or Hans Rudolf Vaget, psychologists like Johannes Cremerius, Roland Kuhn or Josef Rattner, musicologists like Hermann Danuser, Frieder Reininghaus, Hans-Joachim Hinrichsen, Arnold Jacobshagen, Barbara Meier, Anno Mungen or Arne Stollberg. Many scientists have taken their first steps at K&N. Robert Habeck has published his master's and doctoral theses at K&N. Artists are represented in our programme, such as Diana Damrau, Anja Harteros or Jonas Kaufmann, Marco Goecke or Robert Tewsley. Artists are brought into conversation in a unique way: Richard Wagner or Francisco de Goya, for example. Elazar Benyoëtz entrusts us with his work, but also the young generation of writers, such as Manfred Kern, Markus Orths or Sophie Reyer, published by K&N.

March 2025Mein Blumenalbum
Mit Aquarellen von Raoul Dufy | Für alle, die Blumen und Gärten lieben
by Colette, Raoul Dufy, Andrea Spingler
In Mein Blumenalbum richtet die berühmte französische Schriftstellerin Colette ihre Gedanken und Empfindungen an die sie umgebende blühende Pflanzenwelt, in der sie sich selbst wiederfindet: ihre ungebändigte Kindheit in der Natur ebenso wie die schmerzlichen Zustände ihres fortgeschrittenen Alters. Sie sinnt der Glyzinie und ihrer bezwingenden Schönheit ebenso nach wie dem schwarzen Stiefmütterchen »Faust«, der Lilie mit ihrem »arglistigen Duft«, der aufrechten bunten Tulpe, der Herz und Seele stärkenden Schafgarbe, der Maiglöckchenblüte oder der großen Trinkerin Narzisse – »sie hat immer Durst«. Dieser Durst nach der intensiven Erfahrung der Natur speist die Intensität ebenso wie die feine Ironie und eindringliche Schlichtheit ihrer 22 Blumenporträts. Die bibliophile Ausgabe mit den speziell für diesen Band von Raoul Dufy gemalten Aquarellen erscheint erstmalig in Deutschland.

Social & cultural historyOctober 2016Paris and the Commune 1871–78
The politics of forgetting
by Series edited by Bertrand Taithe, Colette Wilson, Penny Summerfield, Peter Gatrell, Max Jones
Despite the scholarship and political activism devoted to keeping the memory of the Paris Commune alive, there still remains much ignorance both in France and elsewhere, about the traumatic civil war of 1871; some 20,000 to 35,000 people were killed on the streets of Paris in just the final week of the conflict. Colette Wilson identifies a critical blind-spot in French studies and employs new critical approaches to neglected texts, marginalised aspects of the illustrated press, early photography and a selection of novels by Emile Zola. This book will be of interest to students and academics studying France in the nineteenth century from a number of different perspectives war and revolution studies, cultural studies, history and cultural memory, literature, art history, photography, the illustrated press, city studies and human geography. The book will appeal equally to all lovers of Paris who wish to know and understand more about the city's turbulent past.
