Strategie a perspektivy českých nakladatelství literatury pro děti a mládež po roce 2000 s přihlédnutím k problematice e-knih
Czech Publishers of Literature for Children and Young Adults after 2000: Strategies, Trends, Prospects

Summary/Abstract: In this article the author discusses the current state of the publishing of children’s books in the Czech Republic, which has resulted from the intersection of several remarkable trends: an inclination to the ‘all-age book’ (the book as a fine-art artefact with no clear target age group); the emphasis on the artistic and interactive conception of the book; and a tendency to intermediality. The author discusses the most important Czech proponents of such books, particularly Petr Nikl, and small publishers in the Czech Republic, like Meander and Baobab, in comparison with the huge Albatros Media publishing concern. He also comments on Czech e-books for children and the roots of Czech publishers’ rather conservative approach to this form.
