  2. ↑ A series whose volumes “ do justice to the intellectual 'experiment' and therefore do not necessarily follow the constraints of mainstream thinking. They are books that are allowed to leave the center and think from the frontier ”. Silvia Stoller in "Journal Phenomenology", Vienna 2011
  3. ↑ " The libri virides bring together outstanding texts by young authors in the fields of philosophy and the philosophically inspired sciences. They are intended to provide a forum that presents the ideas and research results of a new generation." During his scientific work, Sepp has not only endeavored to open up phenomenology in the direction of interculturality and in particular opened up the Asian region with its more recent phenomenological developments, his specific achievement also consists in the continuous and tireless promotion of young phenomenologists. This series confers this endeavor once more expression. "Silvia Stoller in" Journal Phenomenologie ", Vienna 2011
