history
Deuticke-Verlag was founded over a hundred years ago. Franz Deuticke (1850–1919), born near Leipzig, came to Vienna as a young book trade assistant, where on April 1, 1878, he and Stanislaus Toeplitz bought a bookstore at 6 Schottengasse . From 1886 Franz Deuticke was the sole owner of the company, which from then on bore his name. The assortment and the publisher operated on the side with a focus on natural sciences benefited from the proximity of the university.
In 1909 the company moved to the nearby Helferstorferstraße 4, where the Deuticke bookstore resided with its second-hand bookshop until the end of 2003. When Franz Deuticke died in 1919, his eldest son Hans (1887–1953) took over the company.
In April 1938 the Gestapo confiscated and burned about half of the holdings, including first editions by authors such as CG Jung and Sigmund Freud , whose work The Interpretation of Dreams was published by Deuticke in 1900. After the end of the war, Hans Deuticke made a new start with a publishing decision of far-reaching importance: in 1946 he and five colleagues founded the Association of Austrian School Book Publishers.
As part of this, it came closer to the Austrian Federal Publishing House, with which Deuticke (as well as Residenz and the publishing house Christian Brandstätter) was connected in the form of a holding company . In December 2003 Deuticke Verlag was sold to Ernst Klett GmbH , from which Paul Zsolnay Verlag GesmbH acquired Deuticke on August 1, 2004. Together with Zsolnay, the publisher moved into the premises at Prinz-Eugen-Straße 30 in the fourth district of Vienna and was an imprint of Zsolnay until 2019. Paul Zsolnay Verlag is a subsidiary of Carl Hanser Verlag . At the end of 2019, Deuticke was absorbed by Paul Zsolnay Verlag.
