Fernand Hazan Éditeur,[3] also known as Éditions Hazan, is a publishing house in France specializing in art books. It was founded in 1946 by Fernand Hazan and is now a department of Hachette Livre. Fernand's brother, Émile, was a French bookseller from Cairo who emigrated to Paris.
History
[edit]Fernand Hazan was the brother of Émile Hazan, a French bookseller based in Cairo. In 1927, the family emigrated to Paris, where Émile founded a publishing house under his name. In January 1930, Fernand established Les Éditions de Cluny, with Jacques de Michel-Duroc de Brion (1904–1988) as his partner. This publishing house released a partial color facsimile of the Beatus of Saint-Sever in 1943.[4]
In June 1941, under pressure from the German occupiers, Raymond Durand-Auzias was appointed administrator of Éditions Hazan. Fernand sold his shares in Les Éditions de Cluny to Jacques de Michel-Duroc de Brion. Although this sale was nullified by the Commercial Court of Seine in March 1945, Fernand sold the publishing house to his partner in July. However, by September 1945,[5] Fernand created a new public limited company named Fernand Hazan Éditeur.[6] In October 1944, the Purge Committee temporarily appointed him as the administrator of Éditions Baudinière.
