STOCKCERO LITERARY EDITIONS
An ever expanding collection of significant Spanish Literature books
We are commited to building an ever expanding
collection of significant books, comprising Spanish and Latin American literature, history,
economics, and cultural studies.
Our editions are conceived with modern readers and students
in mind, so we aim to include updated footnotes, prefaces,
and bibliographies.
We believe that classics became so because readers have enjoyed them generation after generation.
So our editions' objective is to help modern readers enjoy the texts, not just help them scientifically dissect literary pieces.
If this sounds somewhat obscure, please read what prof. Gary Saul Morson says about teaching Literature to modern audiences.

STOCKCERO ACADEMIA
The professional way to publish your academic papers
Publishing is the surest way to advance your academic career.
But it has never been easy, more so lately.
Traditional academic publishing houses have become impersonal institutions, and resorting to a «vanity press» is no option, as peer review is a must to produce a serious edition.
For the past 18 years STOCKCERO has built a highly regarded catalog and a solid reputation of publishing excellence, based upon the many academics who have trusted us their manuscripts.
So, if you feel it is time to start thinking about publishing your
