Eugen Diederichs (June 22, 1867 – September 10, 1930) [1] was a German publisher born in Löbitz, in the Prussian Province of Saxony.
Diederichs started his publishing company in Florence, Italy, in 1896. [2] He moved on to Leipzig, [3] where he published the early works of Hermann Hesse, and from there to Jena in 1904. [4] He started publishing the magazine Die Tat in 1912. [5] His publishing firm, the Eugen Diederichs Verlag, played a central role in Germany's neo-conservative or revolutionary conservative movement in the late 19th and early 20th century. [6]
Diedrichs married Helene Voigt in 1898; the couple separated in 1911. [3] He married the writer Lulu von Strauß und Torney in 1916. [7] Diederichs died in Jena in 1930.
Since 1988, Diederichs has become an imprint of the Hugendubel publishing house. [4]
