==History==
It was founded on the initiative of Bishop [[Anton Martin Slomšek]] (1800–1862) in Klagenfurt (present-day Austria). As a result of historical and political shifts, Mohorjeva družba relocated to Celje, while two additional branches were established in Gorizia, Italy and Klagenfurt. Today all three branches remain active.
+
Mohorjeva družba was founded by Andrej Einspieler and Anton Janežič as a publisher of Slovenian books. The publishing house is known for its annual collection, still published today, which includes a selection of books and a calendar with articles, tales, practical advice, etc. Mohorjeva družba was renowned across Europe and drew more subscribers every year.  
  
==Publishing programme==
+
The collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire ushered in a difficult period, forcing the publishing house to relocate first to Prevalje and finally to Celje. When Mohorjeva družba was headquartered in Prevalje, Slovenes in the Goriška region were forced to establish their own Mohorjeva družba (1923), because the fascist regime banned the importation of Slovenian books. During World War II publishing took place in Ljubljana, while the publishing house only barely avoided being shut down after returning to Celje. After World War II, Mohorjeva družba was re-established in Klagenfurt as a separate publisher.  
Comprising the publishing programme of Celjska Mohorjeva družba are literature for children and adults, fiction in translation, textbooks, expert literature and handbooks covering a wide array of areas in their many collections. Through the years several acclaimed and prize-winning authors and have collaborated with the publishing house, including [[Tone Pavček]], [[Alojz Rebula]], and [[Bina Štampe Žmavc]].
 
  
Of unique renown and historical importance is their regular collection, which, especially in the past, helped form Slovene cultural awareness, be it at home or with emigrants abroad. The collection features a selection of five books for all ages and tastes and the traditional calendar of Mohor’s Society, where are chronicled all of past year’s significant events, both domestic and foreign, in addition to containing articles, discussions, poetry, and short fiction.
+
Reinvigorated, Celovška Mohorjeva družba (Hermagoras Verein) diversified its publishing portfolio in the following years, adding new titles and areas of expertise to its catalogue, thus becoming the most important organisation of Carinthian Slovenes. In 2001, when the Slovene Mohorjeva družba celebrated the 150th anniversary of its founding, it was awarded the Golden Order of Freedom of the Republic of Slovenia for its services in stimulating Slovenian literature and national consciousness.
  
''[[Zvon Magazine|Zvon]]'' ("Bell") is a bimonthly magazine, whose origins go back to 1870, making it the oldest cultural publication in Slovenia. Published by Celjska Mohorjeva družba since 2006, it affords its readers a variety of artistic and expert contributions, interviews, discussions and reviews.

Founded in 1851, Mohorjeva družba (St. Mohor's Society) is the oldest Slovene publishing house. It was established in Klagenfurt (present-day Austria) on the initiative of Bishop Anton Martin Slomšek (1800–1862) with the aim of fostering the Slovenian language. The publications of Mohorjeva družba played a decisive role in the history of reading and literacy among the Slovene people. As a result of historical and political shifts, Mohorjeva družba relocated to Celje, while two additional branches were established in Gorizia, Italy, and Klagenfurt, Austria. Today, all three branches remain active and collaborate on meetings, book presentations and other related events.



History

Mohorjeva družba was founded by Andrej Einspieler and Anton Janežič as a publisher of Slovenian books.
