The same humanistic shelf, three editorial entrances. Fundamenta returns foundational texts to print. Officina commissions new work from working scholars. Translatio brings into English what was first written elsewhere.

The works that founded the modern study of religion, ritual, society, and the imagination of death — reissued in clean editions, newly typeset, with a fresh editorial apparatus written by working scholars.
