The Hispanic Classics collection

The Hispanic Classics collection (Clasicos Hispanicos) publishes since 2012, in electronic format, texts written in Spanish or other languages, edited and presented by specialists. The collection attempts “to alleviate the philological deterioration that has resulted from the appearance of the ‘electronic-book’ in the publishing market; it edits the texts with fidelity, rigor and neatness.”

Clasicos Hispanicos’ editorial team, composed of philologists and specialists in digital humanities, carries out a strict work of correction and revision of the originals whose final result is the edition in two formats, EPUB and MOBI, with their respective ISBN numbers, built on a base in XML-TEI also available. They advocate open access to research (OAI) policies, so their editions are free to download and licensed under Creative-Commons (Attribution-NonCommercial CC BY-NC).

Clasicos Hispanicos is neither for profit nor commercially edited. This project is based on the disinterested collaboration of the editors who want to publish in this collection. The editors retain full legal rights.

In May 2023 more than 110 electronic books are available at their website.
