Cankarjeva Publishing House
Cankarjeva založba Publishing House has launched several large projects such as the Lexicon and Dictionary of Foreign Terms, and has also produced important series of literature in translation like Winners of the Nobel Prize in Literature or Novels of 20th Century, featuring novels by Joyce, Conrad, Freud, Kureishi, Lessing, and Ishiguro. Among their newer undertakings are two collections: Bralna znamenja ("Reading Signs"), a collection about books and the processes of reading, and Hvalnice ("Hymns"), where renowned Slovene authors examine particular subjects from singular points of view. Their publishing programme also offers works from various other fields, e.g. drama, poetry, children and youth literature, travel writing, language handbooks, and monographic publications. They put great focus on Slovene authors; book publications are accompanied by literary presentations and readings. To recognize the winner of the Vilenica International Literary Prize Cankarjeva založba publishes the Slovene translation of their work in cooperation with the Slovene Writers’ Association and International Vilenica Festival every year.
In September 2004 Cankarjeva založba became part of Mladinska knjiga Publishing House Group.
