Založba /*cf - Institute for Publishing and Research Activities publishes books in various fields of humanities, written by both eminent and new authors. Cf. is an abbreviation for the Latin-derived word confer, meaning "compare" or "consult", and is often used in footnotes to refer the reader from one text to another. The publishing house founders chose this name because they saw all texts as interconnected and incomplete, and their aim was to introduce readers to books that transcended what they already knew. | Založba /*cf - Institute for Publishing and Research Activities publishes books in various fields of humanities, written by both eminent and new authors.
