The Bibliothèque de la Revue d'histoire ecclésiastique is a series of books, which was started at Louvain in 1927 and by June 2025 had grown to 119 titles. The list of the first 99 volumes can be downloaded here.
From issue 99 onwards, BRHE is published by Brepols. The list of volumes 99 to 119 can be consulted directly on the website of Brepols.
If, at its beginnings, the Library mainly accommodated works dedicated to the Middle Ages, the history of religious orders and opposition movements (Cathars, Hussites, Jansenists), liturgy and the 19th century, it has gradually extended its purview to other domains. Like the Revue d'histoire ecclésiastique, the Library today covers all fields of the history of Christianity.
As an international indexed and distributed academic series, the BRHE follows a policy of double-blind peer review. The author's identity is not known to two specialist readers evaluating the book, and the author does not know the identity of the readers.
Orders should be placed via the publisher's website Brepols.
Volumes earlier to no. 96, which are not distributed by Brepols, can still be ordered by sending an e-mail. The order button at the bottom of this page lists the volumes (nos. 1 to 95) by category.
