About us

Founded in 1995 and with a rich catalog containing more than 500 books, the Éditions Ausonius are widely acknowledged by the French and international scientific community and by a wider audience of readers curious about the past. They specialize in the research areas of Ausonius laboratory: history, literature, archaeology, art history and reception of Antiquity and the Middle Ages

Twenty or so collections about various topics are home to monographs, thesis, conference proceedings and collective works, epigraphic and numismatic corpus, atlas, exposition catalogs, valorization works written or directed by French or foreign researchers. The books are sold directly (on site or on the website of Ausonius Editions) and distribute in France and abroad by AFPU-Diffusion.

Thanks to the creation, in 2019, of the Un@ platform that brings together several publishing houses of Universities in Nouvelle-Aquitaine, Ausonius Éditions is also contributing to the development of open science. Several digital books in free access are published within five collections and several multi-press collections, and attract an increasingly wide audience in France and abroad.
