Deutsche Zeitschrift für Philosophie

Deutsche Zeitschrift für Philosophie promotes the open dialog and communication between philosophers of differing schools of thought and different philosophical cultures. As a forum for the philosophical discourse, the journal owes no allegiance to particular schools or trends. Specialized essays, interviews and symposia as well as discussions, archive material and reviews round off the scope of this journal. – publisher’s blurb.

(In German;  available on the Evanston campus only.)

Philosophische Rundschau

Philosophische Rundschau contains review essays by leading scholars as well as short reviews and bibliographical information of new philosophy books. (Published in German.)

Zeitschrift für philosophische Forschung

The journal Zeitschrift für philosophische Forschung, appearing since 1946, is among the most important academic German language journals. It is open to all topics, approaches, and positions of philosophical thought. Given the increasing differentiation and specialization of the field, it thus constitutes a forum offering its various disciplines the opportunity for mutual recognition and exchange. – Publisher’s blurb.

Earlier issues available via PAO.

Philosophia Naturalis

Located at the crossroads between natural philosophy, the theory and history of science, and the philosophy of technology, the journal Philosophia naturalis has represented for many decades – not only in the German speaking countries but internationally – a broad range of topics not addressed by any other periodical. The journal has a highly interdisciplinary focus. Articles with systematic as well as historical approaches are published in German and English. – Publisher’s blurb.

Earlier issues available via Digizeitschriften.

JBSP : Journal of the British Society for Phenomenology

JBSP publishes papers on phenomenology and existential philosophy as well as contributions from other fields of philosophy. Space will be given to research in progress, to book reviews, and to bibliographies of use to students.  The Journal will also provide a forum for interdisciplinary discussion. – Publisher’s blurb.

Theoria
