Open Commons of Phenomenology | OPHEN

The Open Commons of Phenomenology is a non-profit, international scholarly association dedicated to providing free access to the complete corpus of phenomenological research. Its mission encompasses the development and maintenance of digital infrastructure essential for the curation, study, and dissemination of phenomenological materials.

The platform offers a comprehensive repository featuring recent publications, serials, and profiles of scholars in the field. Users are encouraged to contribute by submitting references, thereby enriching the collective resource.

To keep the community informed, the Open Commons maintains a calendar of upcoming events, including conferences and calls for papers. Scholars can submit their events to this calendar, fostering collaboration and awareness within the phenomenological community.

The Open Commons of Phenomenology is funded by a consortium of libraries coordinated by Knowledge Unlatched, underscoring its commitment to open access and the dissemination of knowledge.

Projects – The Open Commons of Phenomenology aims to provide a structured and complete bibliographical database of publications in phenomenology, both historical and current. It offers access to thousands of open acces texts, including the complete works of authors such as Husserl, Scheler, Stein or most of early phenomenologists.

Services – It supports the publication of the monthly Newsletter of Phenomenology, a number of scholarly journals (Metodo, Phenomenological Reviews, Phenomenological Investigations), and hosts the websites of several phenomenological societies (DGPF, CEESP, NASEP). In addition, it cooperates with other digital infrastructure projects (digitalHusserl at the Husserl Archives Leuven, FID – German Research Data Service).
