Pierre Marteau, Cologne
Virtual Publisher for over 340 Years

346 years, to be precise; the earliest Marteau books allow the rough computation whilst the company archive still needs to be looked through one of these days to determine whether the privilege was not actually granted a couple of months earlier — click here for a short history of our firm.
The story of the web located http://www.pierre-marteau.com is shorter. The present project was founded in 2001 by Anton Kirchhofer, Martin Mulsow and Olaf Simons as a platform devoted to scholarly explorations of the period 1650-1750. Associated projects are the Marteau Movie-Database opened by Sabine Biebl in 2002 and the 19th century Marteau initiated by Anton Kirchhofer in 2004.
Though the old company could no reappear without the ".com" in it's domain name, the site is strictly non commercial. Whatever you publish with us will be entirely your publication under the label which has always been a meeting place of independent publishers.
To transform the old publishing house into a web platform inviting more communication between the participants we decided in 2006 to gradually wikify some of our projects. The step is problematic as it remains our aim to offer information you can quote – authorised knowledge in a medium of notoriously unreliable information. We have decided therefore to restrict editorship within the wiki-database to participants who are ready to stand with their names for their work. You will have to contact the editors to open an account under your name – a measure which will in return protect your own work against vandalism and unauthorised modifications: whatever you will publish within the Marteau-wiki will appear connected with your name; all changes will bear the names of those who have made them and who can be contacted within the project and privately via e-mail.
We invite contributors to open user pages and to give information about their ongoing work, and we have no objections if they use their pages to advertise their work and research - quite on the contrary: do use our site to promote work done in this field. Contact us with larger projects you might like to venture with us. We will try to support you wherever we can.
Along with the features the wikipedia medium has added to this site, we will continue to publish articles and e-texts in definite html-editions – with a strong interest in finding individual designs and effective html-concepts. Contact us if you have texts you would like to publish the old-fashioned way on the web.
semper iidem,
Anton Kirchhofer, Martin Mulsow, Olaf Simons
