Encyclopedia
Eulama Literary Agency is a literary agency which represents a vast array of authors, script writers, as well as a variety of companies and their products.
History
Eulama is the second oldest literary agency in Italy. It was founded in 1962 in Buenos Aires, Argentina, by Harald Kahnemann-Oppenheimer and Karin von Prellwitz, who had emigrated to Argentina from their homes in Germany two decades earlier. The name Eulama is short for European Latin American Agency. The Agency is now Europe based, but it still keeps a close working relationship with the most authoritative Latin American publishers. Since 1964 the head office of the Agency has moved from Montevideo to Rome, from where Eulama operates worldwide, negotiating and licensing literary rights,serializations, permissions, audio, film and co-production rights on behalf of clients all over the world. Furthermore, Eulama also operates in areas such as monitoring production-related activities of licensees, collecting due payments and researching financial solvency and business history of potential licensees.Notable authors mediated by Eulama
