CEU Press Classics
Publishing CEU Press Classics started with the series
of Central European Classics. Timothy Garton Ash, founding
general editor of the series, began to note down titles
recommended to him by local writers in dim cafés in
Prague and Budapest in the early 1990s. His aim, to
take these works of nineteenth- and early twentieth
century classic fiction 'out of the ghetto,' onto the
shelves of Western booksellers, and into the consciousness
of Western readers has been successfully achieved.
The success of the series, producing seven books between
1993-2001, prompted the Central European University
Press to bring out further classics from eastern and
central Europe from 2007 onwards in the CEU Press Classics
series.
