Information About

Hogarth Press




The Hogarth Press was founded in 1917 by Leonard and Virginia Woolf . It was named after their house in Richmond , in whose dining room the books were at first hand printed. From being a hobby, it grew during the inter-war years to being a business, with the books being printed by commercial printers. In 1938 Woolf relinquished her interest in the business and it was then run as a partnership by Leonard Woolf and John Lehmann until 1946 , when it became an associate company of Chatto & Windus .

on 'Hogarth House']]As well as publishing the works of the members of the Bloomsbury Group , the Hogarth Press was at the forefront of publishing works on Psychoanalysis and translations of foreign, especially Russian, works.
