The Open Commons of Phenomenology

KU Leuven and Husserl Archives support the Open Commons

We are extremely pleased to announce that KU Leuven and the Husserl Archives in Leuven (Belgium) have officially pledged support to the Open Commons of Phenomenology through its funding programme.

Julia Jansen, director of the Husserl Archives at KU Leuven, comments: "The Open Commons have quickly become an indispensable research tool for researchers and students of phenomenology alike. Its open access resources, so diligently and generously collected and organized by experts in the field, effectively facilitate phenomenological thinking across geographical, political, and economic borders. We, at the Husserl Archives in Leuven, commend our colleagues at the Open Commons for their valuable and selfless work and are in full support of the project."

Patrick Flack, executive secretary of the Open Commons, adds: "The Husserl Archives Leuven is a fundamental institution for the world-wide community of phenomenologists. Ever since its creation in 1939, it has functioned as a profoundly symbolic and effective centre for the dissemination and the stimulation of international research in phenomenology. As such, we feel that the trust and official support of the Husserl Archives is a crucial milestone in the development of the Open Commons as a sustainable, shared infrastructure for phenomenology. We hope that many more institutions will now be encouraged to follow the lead of the Husserl Archives and the 20 university libraries supporting the project."

 

KU Leuven is an institution for research and education with international appeal. It ranks consistently among the best universities in Europe and offers its students a high-quality academic education in a wide range of fields. Since its establishment, the Husserl Archives has been responsible for the publication of Husserl’s philosophical work—a mission that has resulted in the publication (so far) of 42 volumes of Husserliana, as well as more than 220 volumes in the series Phaenomenologica. Moving forward, the Archives are working towards a digital edition of Husserl’s writings, thereby advancing both the long tradition of cutting-edge research in the field, and the critical significance of such research for contemporary thinking.

The Open Commons of Phenomenology is a non-profit, international scholarly association whose mission is to provide free access to the full corpus of phenomenology as well as to develop and maintain the digital infrastructure required for its curation, study and dissemination.
