What can you expect here?  

We provide intellectual contents written and created during nine Centuries by thousands of writers and artists. Such contents are available in non-print media and were sourced from  well preserved locations – mostly not assessable to the public. Our collections with non-print titles and artwork data highlights major intellectual, social, religious, cultural movements and time periods in Europe and in USA which shaped us Human beings and our societies. Inspired by such Philosophical and Psychological thinking we invite you to discover possibly your specific content searches or wishes, andto discover eventually for yourself new content horizons within our collections or academic related compilations with adequate data.

In these unique collections you will find contents in Non-Fictions and Fictions, originally written from the 12^th Century through the early 20^th Century. These contents were ‘physically’ published between 16^th Century & early 20^th Century. Our oldest original printed title was published in the year 1514, now and together with thousands of other valuable works republished in non-print media.

Thousands of ‘physical’ works were compiled and preserved in privately owned Libraries and collections, without public access to these works at these locations, from which were sourced the contents.

One of our Thematic Collections – such as Proletarische Frauenbewegung – were sourced from 28 different Libraries or Archives in Europe. A similar background exists for our titles in the set The 1848/49er Revolutionaries and their influence in 19th Century USA.

In other words, the original ‘physical’ contents were transformed into non-print media containing these valuable (often rare) contents which are available for purchase them.

Which writers, artists can you expect here?

In a nutshell: we are specialised in elaborating works from unknown – or less known – creative people. This means i.e. for Literature, you will not find Goethe or Schiller or Sir Walter Scott or Jane Austen here, they are available elsewhere. Or in Historic Socialism you will not find Carl Marx etc., you will find unknown political texts from writers in local towns.

Our Author names and subjects were checked (formerly and subjects) by Academics to identify in this way approx. 6,200 authors* (f/m) in our collections. 

On offer are also approx. 2,300* anonymously written titles**. We don’t have knowledge about these anon. writers and / or thes anonymously written contents. These writers and contents opens research opportunities to ‘unmask’ the authorships and/or their contents. Or to find reasons why such works were originally ‘distributed’ (i.e. in Pamphlets) or even published anonymously.

A similar situation appears with several hundred writers’ names and its contents which are ‘hidden’ in our Anthologies or Periodicals. A total of 215 Periodicals (Fictions & Non-Fictions) includes  texts with approx.120,000* pages, also inviting to discover/‘unmask’ such individual authorship with its contents in these 215 Periodicals.

Our Fine Art-data contains art historian data and images from approx. 4,300* paintings/drawings. The ‘physical’ artworks (oil, aquarelle, drawing etc.) were created  from 215* Artists (f/m) in Europe during the 16th to the 19th Centuries.

Which subjects can you expect in our collections?

THEOLOGY, thematically structured under the subject Spirituality, and under the subject Religion. And further organisation by 14 additional Themes / Subjects, such as Mystic, Aszese, Dogmatic, Liturgy, Sermons etc. All of them are further differentiated by additional available scholarly subject

Which media can you expect with these contents?

Our text (including drawings, graphics, Caricatures – Daumier etc.) contents were created in nine Centuries (12th – early 20th Centuries). Our non-print media with such text contents spans approx. 8,000,000* pages, sourced from approx. 40,000* ‘physical’ works in English, French, German Languages, some works are in Latin Language. 

The  descriptive data (or selected images) about Fine Arts in Europe, were originally created in four Centuries (16^th – 19^th Centuries).

In Libraries, Archives, Museums, Private Locations – where artefacts and documents were collected, used and preserved – the passage of time becomes tangible. Each curated and preserved item holds a unique imprint of the era it originates from, inviting us to ponder the connections between individual experience and the broader movements in history.

Such items and such collections with its contents often reveal intricate stories of innovation, transformation and changes, reflecting shifting tides of knowledge, religion, culture, politics and societies across Centuries.

Unfortunately, often such contents were never / are no longer ‘physically’ assessable to the public.

And because of old printed paper qualities these contents are endangered to be lost forever. Our products are at least substitute media and in this way helpful to avoid loss of information and knowledge.

How to use our Contents & Media? 

We are specialized in non-print publications such as microfiches and eBooks (with various digital access options), including digital Bibliographic Records.

Such non-print publications are useful for Library/ Archive / Museum collection developments – useful for Libraries as substitute media (to serve their users’ content requirements). And in the same moment being able to support their own standards for their own existing ‘physical’ holdings / collections regarding long-term archival requirements and preservation necessities.

And our contents are focussed to Academic Research & Developing / Teaching projects in Humanities, History, Religion, Theology, Literature, Psychology, Social Sciences, Cultural Studies, Fine Arts, Art History, etc.

Comments:

There are no content / media duplications within collections and in-between the collections.

eBooks and / or microfiches titles are available with electronic Bibliographic records. 

Approx. half of the original ‘physical’ works are in German Language. According to International Standards we leave its bibliographic data in German language.

In some of our English Version-Webpages we added brief translated introductions in English or French Languages.

Notes:

* Subject to change without prior notice

**  the word “title” means “bibliographic unit”, meaning one title could contain the content of at least one original ‘physical’ volume. However, depending on the Originals, one title can also contain the contents of two, three (‘three-deckers‘) or more original ‘physical’ works / volumes. This is especially the case in Novels, Anthologies and Periodicals.
