Carl Hanser Verlag as an intermediary of Polish literature in West Germany between 1945 and 1990

The Munich-based Carl Hanser Verlag was one of the most important publishers in the 1950s and 1960s when it came to promoting Polish literature in West Germany. The fact that – from the 1950s onwards (after a period of German classics’ editions) – the Hanser Verlag focused also on Polish literature seems to be baffling.
