Provenance/Publisher: In 1833 two brothers from the department of Manche Auguste and Hippolyte Garnier opened a bookstore in the tradition of nineteenth-century publisher-booksellers under the arches of the Palais Royal in Paris then one of the liveliest centers in the capital. They were soon joined by another of their brothers Pierre. The business took off very quickly and the Garnier brothers bought up the backlists of Delloye Dubochet and Salvat publishers of the works of the great romantic authors followed by the classical lists of Panckoucke. They also struck up connections with Sainte-Beuve Musset Gautier Sand and Vigny publishing some of their works. The Maison Garnier Frères gained even more prestige in 1853 when it moved to the former government building on the corner of the rue de Lille and the rue des Saints-Pères. The Garnier brothers worked to expand and improve their catalog publishing numerous dictionaries popular titles and books for young readers while also continuing with their literary publications: collections of Latin and Greek classics and modern works. In 1896 the appearance of the first "Nouvelle Editions" of the Classiques Garnier a new collection combining the previous Classiques latins Classiques grecs and Bibliothèque choisie collections. In the words of the catalog the new collection offered the best French and foreign ancient and modern works. It was a success and frequent references to the Classiques Garnier is featured in autobiographical works thereafter. Over the course of the twentieth century scholarly editions increasingly took precedence. In the 1960s to produce low-cost versions of the "Classiques Garnier" a deal was struck with Flammarion. The low-cost versions were stripped of critical commentary. This was the start of Garnier-Flammarion an independent company in 1970 under the name GF Flammarion. This was one of many deals to assure the solvency of the publisher though eventually Editions Garner Freres went bankrupt in June 1983 their list was bought up by Presses de la Cite. InfoMédia acquired the collection in 1998 with the prime aim of upholding the editorial policies that have made the Classiques Garnier famous for over a century. Since 2009 under the editorial direction of Claude Blum Editions Classiques Garnier has expanded its catalog to include all aspects of literature and the humanities publishing both editions of texts and studies and essays by top specialists.
