The Publishing House

For more than two-hundred and fifty years the name Walter de Gruyter has been synonymous with high-quality, landmark publications in the humanities and natural sciences. The scope of our publishing program includes theology and philosophy, biology and chemistry, linguistics and literature, mathematics and physics, history and archaeology, as well as law and medicine. In all these areas de Gruyter has consistently partnered with exceptional scholars to establish itself as a key international publisher.
