Editions Marteau is the label under which we are trying to offer — with an emphasis on the years 1650-1750 — practically all sorts of materials first written or published in the 17th and 18th centuries. Our editions should present texts you can quote: texts with page references to original editions, authentic formatting and original spelling, and, where our editors provided them, text with variants of other editions extant. We are trying to produce html texts you can enjoy reading on screen, with commentary, explanatory notes, and introductions, all with a perspective on modern research. Our editions are, bearing these aims in mind, most of all open projects.

You are invited to use our texts freely and to help us improve them. Contact us via verlagshaus@pierre-marteau.com with commentary, with proof readings you can offer, and with projects you would like to venture at Marteau.
