F. A. Brockhaus AG was a Germanbook publishing firm founded byFriedrich Arnold Brockhaus. It was best known forits eponymous encyclopedia and other renown bedrock brands for lexical functional grammar such asDuden,Meyers or theHarenberg Lexikon-Verlag andKunstverlag Weingarten. Its legal successor is the companyBibliographisches Institut & F. A. Brockhaus AG.
The publicly traded company was eventually divested through fundamental asset-stripping after rights of the renown Brockhaus brand, including rights for its online presence andMeyers Online, were sold off toBertelsmann subsidiaryArvato, following a stock take-over through majority stakeholderCornelsen Verlag. The remaining book publisher and legal successor, which has completely withdrawn from any lexical functional grammar or reference-works business fields, now operates under the nameBibliographisches Institut GmbH.[1]
