We invite visitors to our web to view the heavily-illustrated web version of the Yale University Beinecke Library exhibition, The Illustrating Traveler: Adventure and Illustration in North America and the Caribbean 1760-1895, co-curated by William Reese and George Miles.
The William Blake Archive. A hypermedia archive sponsored by the Library of Congress and supported by the Getty Grant Program, the Institute for Advanced Technology in the Humanities at the University of Virginia, and Sun Microsystems. The archive features medium and high resolution scans of Jerusalem and Songs... based on the Yale Exhibition, The Human Form Divine: William Blake From the Paul Mellon Collection.
Web Resources about Books
and Book Collecting
Aaron Rene Ezis maintains the award-winning American Literature.com Library both as a function of his devotion to literature, and as an integral element of his pursuance of the monastic life. He hand codes into HTML and posts a chapter-a-day from the bedrock classics of American literature.
The Beinecke Library at Yale offers an overview of its extensive collections, along with exhibits. Its online catalogue may be publicly accessed via a TN3270 client at orbis.yale.edu.
A Guide to the Book Arts and Book History on the World Wide Web is maintained at the Catholic University of America and includes links to many resources.
Web Resources
Devoted to Authors
The William Butler Yeats home page is somewhat static, but it does make the texts of the major poems available on the Web. The Yeats Society Sligo maintains a site, which although still under development, shows prospects of being a very worthwhile index of links, and a source for the Society's newsletter. For a broad range of links to resources on Irish literature, art, history, food, and travel, take a look at Yeats Country Dietitian Pictorial. The emphasis is, of course, on the beautiful northwest.
Work in Progress: The James Joyce Home Page, now hosted on a much faster server, is a useful and rich link to a number of resources about the 20th century master of the Irish novel.
The Jorge Luis Borges Center for Studies & Documentation is a trilingual site offering access to bibliographic, critical and other resources.
