Don't Let Dedalus Die Petition: Signature List Feed http://www.gopetition.com/signatures/dont-let-dedalus-die.html Online petition signatures en-us Thu, 9 Apr 2026 10:55 UTC GoPetition RSS Feed Generator Copyright 2026 GoPetition Nigel Foster [Signature #2481] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/10767341?utm_medium=rss Dedalus promotes English literature overseas as well as providing excellent translations for the English-speaking market. Your proposed action is short-sighted and counter to the Government guide-lines on cuts. It also reneges on existing agreements. You really should reconsider.

It's presentation is perfect for the target audience and stands alone with it's selection of titles. It would be such a shame for Dedalus to die as I have every intention of buying every book it has published and hopefully many more in the future.

Dedalus is amongst the best of those - they need to be suported! A Government, which refuses this support could be described as xenophobic and anti-European.

Being neither British by nationality nor an employee at Dedalus by profession, I am, as a writer, adding my voice to that of all the living souls believing that this peaceful petition will help make things take their natural course and that Dedalus, like other edition houses, will have access to its right in the annual grant

As a reader and author, I have personally been inspired by Dadelus and know many others who can say the same. Publishers such as Dadelus, in our modern climate, deserve support; it is those who see the "artistic" as impractical, childish, and who have made literature a profit venture equal to stock trading who deserve financial worries.

To take away funding from an organisation which caters for this form of literature which is rarely found in the publishing sector seems to go against the policies of diversity and cultural enrichment which the Arts Council is supposed to stand for.

If publishers such as Dedalus are unable to continue publishing titles due to literary value rather than their projected sales, a great store of imaginative genius will be lost to the reading public. This, in my opinion, and in the opinion of many readers, would be a great shame.
