Hemingway, Ronsard and the Little Prince on the same paper

Novelists, poets, historians, philosophers: the list is wider than you'd expect

The word "literature" covers more here than the novel. You'll find Victor Hugo and George Sand, but also Pierre de Ronsard (Monaco, 2024), Étienne de La Boétie (France, 2026), Ernest Hemingway (Monaco, 2026), the historian Alain Decaux, the philosopher Emmanuel Mounier and the astronomer and popular-science writer Camille Flammarion, all three honoured by France in 2025. The authors' chronology therefore stretches from the Renaissance to the twentieth century, with issues devoted to men and women of letters as well as to essayists.

The Little Prince, a work rather than an author

Some issues celebrate a book rather than its author. In 2026, France devotes a €4 stamp to The Little Prince and, alongside it, a €30 souvenir sheet reproducing the poster. The classification doesn't distinguish between the two cases: a work, a character or a writer all find their place in the same spot, as long as the subject of the issue is primarily literary.

Europa 1997 and 2022: two years when stories took centre stage

The Europa programme, with its set theme each year for European postal administrations, has touched literature twice. Monaco issued in 1997 a series listed under both "literature" and "Europa", for the theme of tales and legends; Gibraltar did the same in 2022, around stories and myths, for a stamp offered at €15. These series differ from tributes to a specific author in their starting point: a collective theme rather than a single figure.

Monaco and France in the lead, foreign series more scattered

France and Monaco feed the section continuously, well ahead of the rest. Occasional but regular issuers follow: Great Britain, the Marshall Islands, with several series devoted to writers between 1996 and 2015, the Dominican Republic, Peru, Bolivia and the United States, whose single stamps are offered at €1. A few unexpected crossovers also appear: literature with chess (Mongolia, 1999) or with music (Paraguay, 2014).

A €40 sheetlet for Victor Hugo

Prices run from €1 for many common stamps to peaks reserved for recent sheetlets: €40 for Victor Hugo in 2025, €20 for George Sand in 2026, €30 for the Little Prince souvenir sheet. Alongside these, used series exist too, such as the Democratic Republic of the Congo's 2006 series at €5 or a 1950 Saar stamp at €4, the oldest date in the collection going back to 1938.
