International academic publisher of works in the humanities

Geschiedenis

Brepols Publishers is an international academic publisher of works in the humanities.

The focus of its publications lies in "source-works" from Antiquity, the Middle Ages and the Early Modern period. By this is meant critical editions of original texts and documents in their original language, reference works such as encyclopaedias, handbooks and bibliographies, as well as monograph studies and cutting-edge research.

Fundamental series like the Corpus Christianorum and online databases like the Library of Latin Texts, as well as the co-operation with highly respected institutes like I.R.H.T. (Paris) and the Institute for Medieval Studies (Leeds), explain and testify why Brepols works are being used in every well-respected academic library all over the world.
Harvey Miller Publishers (an imprint of Brepols) has established a reputation for the quality and authority of its scholarly monographs and catalogues raisonnés in the field of medieval, Renaissance and Baroque art.

Besides publications under its own imprint Brepols distributes works from many world-class academic institutions.

The mediums in which Brepols Publishers operates are the printed book (monographs, miscellanies and journals), microfiche, CD-ROM, online publishing (BREPOLiS) and online journals.
Languages: English and French but also German, Spanish, Italian and Dutch (as well as old languages like Latin, Greek, Occitan etc.)

Brepols Publishers has been founded in 1796 and is located in a 17th century building of the historic beguinage of Turnhout. Brepols Publishers has an editorial office for art history in New York (Harvey Miller / Brepols).
The CTLO, a centre for computer-assisted research of classical languages, is also organised by Brepols Publishers and is housed in the Corpus Christianorum Library & Knowledge Centre.
