Informations

The Bibliographic Information Base in Patristics is a documentary system in patristics. Even if patristic literature remains its major preoccupation, the BIBP works on all disciplines studying patristic Christianity. Until now, the priority is given to the current information from the scientific journals.

This website allows you to use the bibliographical services of the BIBP. For now, more than 70 000 records, from more than 1 800 journals, can be retrieved. Presently, the database may be browsed in the own language of each document with the fields "All fields" or "Descriptors in original language". However, for a single search on the entire database (all languages), you have to use French keywords with the fields "Descripteurs... via le français". A first search in your own language will allow you to find and copy/paste the relevant French keywords.

Note that, since the titles and summaries are given more and more in many languages, a search in «Tous les champs» through any language may be useful.

Remember : you may truncate the words with an asterisk (*) for a broader search. EX: "Pelag*" for "Pelagius", "pelagian", "pelagianism", etc.
