History

Temenos launched in 1980,

Henri Corbin's L'Universite de St Jean de Jerusaleme school founded in Paris in 1974, was an inspiration for the founding of Temenos Academy.[1] But while Corbin's school held to an Abrahamic tradition, the new teaching organisation also looked to the teaching of Buddhism and Hinduism.[1] The thirteenth and last issue of Temenos appeared in 1992.[2][9]

By 1998, the journal reappeared as the Temenos Academy Review[9][10] and three more volumes were edited by Kathleen Raine.[1] Grevel Lindop was editor for the review from 2000 to 2003; and volume 7, the Kathleen Raine Memorial Issue, was edited by Brian Keeble. As of 2016, there have been 18 volumes.[2] Contributing authors include Wendell Berry,[8] Prince Charles, Karan Singh and Seyyed Hossein Nasr.[1]

The headquarters of Temenos Academy Review are in Ashford, Kent.[2]
