Fr. Stefan Zara’s site used to contain a list of the volumes of the CSEL in Google Books.  Unfortunately it has just been shut down.   It was hosted by WordPress who understandably took exception to some of the material that he was sharing.  I think that some was copyright in the US if not in his native Romania.  I thought I would add his banner at the left here, so we can remember it.

However I found a cached version of this useful list from 8 October 2009 in Google cache.  To preserve this useful item, I have edited it down and post it here.  Please add further links in the comments, if you come across them.  I don’t maintain collections of links, you see, as I have so much else to do.

Corpus Scriptorum Ecclesiasticorum Latinorum

The Corpus Scriptorum Ecclesiasticorum Latinorum (CSEL) is a series of critical editions of the Latin Church Fathers published by a committee of the Austrian Academy of Sciences.

The CSEL is intended to include the ecclesiastical authors who wrote in Latin from the late 2nd century AD until the death of Bede in 735. The texts are edited on the basis of all extant manuscripts and according to the principles of modern textual criticism and thus aim to provide a critical replacement for the corresponding volumes of the Patrologia Latina.

  1. According to the Wikipedia article in the 150 years of CSEL they have published about 1/3rd of what was published by Migne. Is this acurate or is it some better fraction?

  2. Bob Buller has sent me a set of further links, not in the list above — thank you!

    I’ve provided below a number of Google Books or Internet Archive links for volumes missing from Fr. Stefan Zara’s CSEL list. Many of the volumes for which he provides a Google Books link are also available in the Internet Archive. See http://www.archive.org/search.php?query=(Corpus%20Scriptorum%20Ecclesiasticorum%20Latinorum)

  3. Thank you so much for cataloging these items and making them available publicly. I am looking for the Latin text for AUGUSTINUS, Epistulae nuper in lucem prolatae (Epistulae Divjak) – ed. J. Divjak 1981. In particular, I need the Latin for Epistle 10 in this series. Do you happen to know whether this is available online? If you can help me with this, it would be greatly appreciated!

    Cynthia R. Nielsen

  4. 1981 should be in copyright, you know? But doubtless older editions of the epistulae of S. Augustine are online. Indeed isn’t there agostino.it or something like that, with all of them?

  5. I found four the missing public domain volumes on HathiTrust. It was a bit of a trial, but I managed to turn the page images into PDFs and upload them to the Internet Archive. Also, volume 46 is now available on Google Books:

    46: http://books.google.com/books?id=pTERAAAAYAAJ
    51: http://www.archive.org/details/CSEL51
    52: http://www.archive.org/details/CSEL52
    53: http://www.archive.org/details/CSEL53
    56: http://www.archive.org/details/CSEL56

    That leaves just volumes 48, 57, and 59 to be located.

  6. @Emilio, volumes 41 and 42 are indeed available at Google Books. But people outside the US cannot see them! (Thanks to the lobbying of European publishers … )

  7. Dear Roger,
    I have imagined it, because it happens also for other books. I have resolved by Albrecht’s indication. However, thanks a lot for the information.
    Emilio

  8. Thank you very much indeed! That must have been hard labour to do. We all benefit by your generosity. I have added these links to the main table.

  9. Is CSEL 61 actually downloadable? I have just tried and, while I can see the title page, I can get no content.

    Well done for putting another list of links up – the more the merrier!

  10. Sorry for disturbing, but I found a wrong link at
    Vol. 58 AUGUSTINUS, Epistulae: Praefatio et indices – ed. A. Goldbacher 1923
    (It points to CSEL 60)
    The correct link is somewhere in the thread.
    Regards, Miran.
