At the Verso books blog I have a piece tracing the history of Louis Althusser’s Théorie series at François Maspero in the 1960s and 1970s

From 1965 until 1980, Louis Althusser edited the Théorie series of books, each released by the pioneering French publisher François Maspero. Here Stuart Elden charts the history of the series, and the impact it had on French, and global, Marxist philosophy.

This builds on the earlier list of books in the series I posted on this site.
