The Delagrave publishing house was founded in 1865 through the purchase by Charles Delagrave of a modest publishing collection of classical Greek and Latin authors. This publishing house benefited from the impetus given to secular education by the Third Republic. The publisher quickly expanded into a wide range of disciplines (history, geography, mathematics, natural sciences, philosophy, astronomy).
