Corpus Scriptorum Christianorum Orientalium

The Corpus Scriptorum Christianorum Orientalium is an important multilingual collection of Eastern Christian texts with over 600 volumes published since its foundation in 1903 by the Catholic University of Louvain in Belgium and the Catholic University of America in Washington, D.C.

The present Secretary General is Andrea Schmidt of the University of Louvain (UCLouvain) in Louvain-la-Neuve.

There are also sections for works in Arabic, Coptic, Ethiopic, Armenian and Georgian.

Today, only one of these specialized printers is responsible for the production and publication of the volumes.

Peeters[1] (formerly known as 'Orientaliste'), who established also an international academic publishing house in the 20th century, is responsible for the distribution of the books.
