Doplněk

Doplněk is a Czech publishing house established in Brno by Jan Šabata. It has been independent since 1991 and focuses on social sciences, including law textbooks, historical, psychological, and social-ecological publications, as well as regional literature and fiction.

The publishing house Doplněk (Complement) was established in Brno by Jan Šabata who was the director of the publishing house Atlantis at that time. According to the original idea it should have been „a complement“ to Atlantis, intended for publishing literature not corresponding directly with its scope of publishing activities. Since 1991 Doplněk has been an independent publishing house aimed particularly at publishing books from the field of social sciences. At the beginning, Doplněk has specialised in publishing law textbooks. As to the socioscientific literature, the series of historical, psychological and social-ecological publications have been gradually established. Regional literature, concentrated mainly on the Brno region and its surroundings, was incorporated into the activity of the publishing house quite naturally. In connection with that fiction appeared as a new item in the publishing house production, bringing about also the later series of memoirs and translations of contemporary world literature. The publishing house Doplněk has published more than three hundred and fifty books during the time of its existence.
