Store Description

La Librer�a Prometeo nace en un modesto local de la ciudad de M�laga, en 1969, con una vocaci�n de fomento de la cultura. Prometeo es ese h�roe de la mitolog�a griega que pretende construir un mundo a la medida del hombre. En 1975 aparece la Librer�a Proteo. El nombre hace referencia a un dios marino, tambi�n de la mitolog�a griega, caracterizado por sus capacidades adaptativas. El paso del tiempo nos obliga a transformarnos en una empresa cada vez m�s eficiente pero sin menoscabo de su vocaci�n germinal de servicio a la cultura, en un contexto laboral digno y en una pr�ctica de un comercio serio y equitativo. En todo ello seguimos, despu�s de 43 a�os de existencia. Nuestro pensamiento sigue puesto en un buen trabajo, en una actividad de fomento de la cultura y en una presencia perdurable en la ciudad. En el a�o 2004 llevamos a cabo la rehabilitaci�n de la casa donde radica Librer�a Proteo siguiendo criterios ecol�gicos. En esa actuaci�n se descubri� la Torre del siglo XIII de la antigua Puerta de Buenaventura y se integr� en la fachada del edificio y en el interior de la librer�a.
