The Beletrina Publishing Institute (up to 2014 known a Študentska založba Publishing House) is one of the most productive Slovene publishing houses. It publishes about 50 titles each year and prides itself on its choice of quality literary works. The main criteria for its work is that the writing is innovative, fresh and radical. The book editions Beletrina or Koda have got acclaimed and popular. The publisher places great importance on international cooperation; each year about 20 books are published abroad.

In November 2009 the Beletrina bookshop was opened in central Ljubljana.

Beletrina publishes also the quarterly ČKZ Magazine for Critique of Science, for Imagination and New Anthropology and the online magazine AirBeletrina, and produces two festivals. The annual Days of Poetry and Wine Festival and the World Literatures - Fabula Festival.


History

The publishing activities started in 1996 when the Student Organisation of the University of Ljubljana founded the Študentska založba Publishing House. In 2014 the Beletrina, a non-profit private institute was established to carry on publishing activities.


Book series

Its first two book editions, Translations and Scripta, offered an interesting study of literature that is still popular today. In 1997 it launched the series Claritas and Koda; the Claritas series covered translated texts from the field of philosophy, political science, sociology, history (Seneca, Hume, Moore, Brentano, Cassirer, Arendt, Siedentop) and contemporary texts by Slovene authors (Janez Strehovec, Igor Škamperle), while Koda focused on cybernetic culture and other sciences related to information society, bringing more than 20 publications (covering basic theories by the likes of Debord, Benjamin, Harraway, Sloterdijk, Negri and Hardt) to a Slovene readership. In 2010 the two series were consolidated into one (Koda), which is now the publishing house's main series focused on humanities.

Since 2003 the book series Beletrina has been published, a collection which covers titles of original literary works by Slovene authors and international authors in translation.


Workshops

Every autumn Beletrina organises literary workshops for young poets and writers.
