Presses universitaires de France (PUF; Template:Langx), founded in 1921 by Paul Angoulvent (1899–1976), is a French publishing house.
Recent company history
The financial and legal structure of the Presses Universitaires de France was completely restructured in 2000, when the original cooperative structure was abandoned. Companies that then took stakes in PUF included Flammarion Publishing (17% in 2000, 18% currently) and insurer Maaf Assurances (9%, 8% currently).[1] In 2006, another insurance giant Garantie Mutuelle des Fonctionnaires (GMF) injected capital into the PUF, taking a 16.4% stake in the publisher.[2]
Que sais-je?
The paperback series Que sais-je? ("What do I know?", a quotation from Montaigne) was created by Paul Angoulvent in 1941. Specialists are invited to ruminate on specific themes in texts of up to 128 pages each. Today, there are close to 4,000 titles by 2,500 authors, constituting the world's largest paperback encyclopedia, covering a broad range of subjects. Many of the titles have been translated into up to forty-three languages. By 2004, the PUF had sold around 160 million copies of titles in the series. Its ISSN number is 0768-0066.
