Abstract
Rad u prvom redu daje uvid u kontekst osnivanja izdavačke kuće Penguin Books 1935. godine od strane Sir Allena Lanea. Nadalje, promatra se nagli rast popularnosti i revolucionarni utjecaj njihovih jeftinih, meko uvezanih izdanja klasične knjiţevnosti koja su bila široko dostupna javnosti, tako de facto dokazujući da postoji veliko trţište za „ozbiljnu“ knjiţevnost. U radu se prati razvoj rada izdavača kroz prvih nekoliko desetljeća nakon njegovog osnutka, sa naglaskom na neke bitnije dogaĎaje iz toga doba poput: utjecaja Penguin Booksa na javnost u 2. svjetskom ratu, kao i problema s kojima su se onda suočavali (npr. problemi sa proizvodnjom papira), pojave poznatih nakladničkih cjelina kao što su Penguin Classics i Pelican Books, formacije lako prepoznatljivog grafičkog stila, pravnih sporova i kontroverzi oko cenzure u vidu izdavanja romana Ljubavnik lady Chatterley D.H. Lawrencea, itd. Kao kraj formativnog perioda uzete su financijske neprilike iz kraja 60-ih godina i kupnja kompanije od strane dioničkog društva Pearson 1970. godine.
Abstract (english)
This paper primarily gives insight into the context behind the founding of the publisher Penguin Books in 1935 by Sir Allen Lane. Furthermore, it delineates the rapid growth in popularity and influence of their cheap paperback editions of classic literature, thus proving that a large market for "serious" literature exists. The paper traces the publishing house's growth over its first couple of decades, with an emphasis on some of the more important events from the era, like: the influence of Penguin Books on the public during World War II, as well as problems they faced at the time (i.e. problems with the production of paper), the appearance of several famous series like Penguin Classics and Pelican Books, the creation of the widely-recognized graphic style, legal issues and controversies regarding the publishing of D.H. Lawrence's novel Lady Chatterley's Lover, etc. Financial troubles from the end of the 1960s and the resulting acquisition by Pearson PLC in 1970 are taken as the end of the publisher's formative period.
