Overview
Editorial Germania S.L. is a Spanish publishing house based in Alzira, in the province of Valencia. It was founded in December 2000 by the poet Antoni Martínez Peris. Operating as a private limited company (Sociedad Limitada), it is an independent, regionally rooted publisher whose reach extends across the whole Spanish state. The house publishes both fiction and non-fiction, spanning classical and contemporary works, and authors both national and foreign. Its linguistic range is notably broad for a publisher of its size: it issues titles in Catalan, Castilian Spanish, English and French. This multilingual profile reflects both the bilingual Valencian environment in which it operates and an ambition to bring international literature to Spanish-language readers. Germania's catalogue contains more than a thousand titles organised into sixteen collections. Among the authors it has published are Manel Alonso, Francesc Mompó, Manel Rodríguez-Castelló and Pasqual Mas — figures associated with Valencian and Catalan-language letters. The publisher maintains an official website at germania.es and a blog, and has been profiled in the business press, including the newspaper Expansión. As an independent literary publisher, Germania occupies a niche in the Spanish book market: small enough to be curated by its founder's literary sensibility, yet productive enough to sustain a catalogue of over a thousand titles and a wide network of collections. Its identity is closely tied to Valencian cultural life and to the promotion of Catalan-language literature alongside works in other languages.
History
Editorial Germania was founded in December 2000 in Alzira, Valencia, by the poet Antoni Martínez Peris. From its inception the house was conceived as an independent literary publisher serving the Spanish book market, with a particular grounding in the Valencian region and its bilingual Catalan-Spanish culture. Over the following years Germania built a catalogue that grew to more than a thousand titles, organised into sixteen distinct collections. This structure allowed the publisher to combine general literary output with more specialised series, covering both fiction and non-fiction and ranging from classical works to contemporary writing. The catalogue includes translations and original works by both Spanish and foreign authors, issued in Catalan, Castilian, English and French. Among the writers published by Germania are Manel Alonso, Francesc Mompó, Manel Rodríguez-Castelló and Pasqual Mas, names associated with contemporary Valencian and Catalan-language literature. The publisher's commitment to these languages, alongside Castilian and other European tongues, has made it a small but recognisable presence in the Spanish independent publishing scene. Germania maintains an official website and a blog, and its corporate profile has been recorded in the business daily Expansión. As of the available sources, the company remains an active private limited company headquartered in Alzira.
