Rights & Permissions

Welcome to our Rights & Permissions Department!


The Walter de Gruyter publishing group, which includes the imprints De Gruyter Mouton and De Gruyter Saur, is known throughout the world as a leading publisher of academic literature.

De Gruyter publishes high quality content across a range of subject areas including language and linguistics, philosophy, theology and religious studies, art, classical and ancient studies, history, academic and library reference, library and information science, medicine and natural sciences, mathematics and physics, law and Jewish studies. Our content is highly regarded by publishers worldwide who regularly purchase translation rights for our titles. 

You are welcome to contact us should you be interested in any of our titles or if you require any additional information. Our actual Rights Catalogue contains a choice of titles for which we can offer you translation rights. Please also browse our website to identify titles that may be of interest for your own publishing programme.

Should you wish to reproduce material from any of our content in any form written permission is required. We normally process permissions requests in the order in which they are received. Please allow 6-8 weeks for publication permissions and please be aware that fees may be charged for the reproduction or translation of material held under copyright. Payment in advance is required and any permissions which remain unpaid after 30 days will be considered void.

For permissions requests, please fill out the following form and send it back to us via email or fax. If you have questions concerning the permission form, you can contact us any time.
