British and Irish Authors beginning with "Beowulf" in the 7th-century,
up to present day writers. Authors are listed first by birth, then
alphabetically.
It is highly advised that when using this site for a specific author or
movement the user first knows birth years, as it will limit the search
through over 800 names. There is no search engine on this site.There
are
gaps in the list as there are far too many authors to list. However,
for
the most part the major authors are listed. The site, along with a
chronological
list, also supplies links for many of the authors.Authors are too
numerous
to mention all, but those given greatest interest on this site include

a new literature resource from Blackwell Publishing. The site is
designed
to give students and teachers access to the bewildering range of
perspectives
on literature from the Medieval period to the present. The site,
therefore,
carries short, sometimes polemical, articles that attempt to both
analyse
a specific text and provide readers with an insight into new
developments
in the field.The site is subscription-based, but a generous sample of
what
is available can be browsed.

This literary theory site
is written
and edited by Dr Kristi Siegel of Mary Mount College. The site aims to
introduce undergraduates to the key terms and ideas of the literary
theories
that have revolutionised literary studies, particularly in the last 30
years. The site contains entries on every major theory: deconstruction;
New Historicism; Lacanian psychoanalysis; New Criticism; Russian
Formalism
etc. Siegel provides a sketch of the theory - including basic concepts
and main thinkers. She then lists the basic texts in the field, as well
as providing a bibliography of secondary reading. Links to relevant
sites
are also provided. This text-based site is fast loading and easy to
navigate. - Introduction

- Modern
critical thought
This is the Web site of a
critical
theory course taught by Mary Klages at Colorado University. The course
is very conventional, but useful for that reason. It begins with
Saussure,
takes in structuralism and Levi-Strauss, and then works through
Derrida,
psychoanalysis, French feminism, queer theory and Marxism. Of great
interest
to university teachers are the explications of classic theoretical
texts
that Klages makes available. There is a very useful discussion of
Foucault
and Bakhtin on the author function; an excellent summary and reading of
Derrida's 'Structure, Sign and Play'; interesting thoughts on Cixous.
Klages
writes with great expertise and intelligence.

Merlin
This is the complete
text of the
'Prose Merlin' in John Conlee's edition (Kalamazoo, 1998), presented as
part of the TEAMS Middle English Texts website. The 'Prose Merlin'
survives
in one manuscript (Cambridge University Library MS Ff. 3. 11). It is
primarily
the history of Merlin, including an account of the Rise of Arthur -
such
as the Saxon invasion and how peace and stability was returned to
Britain.
The manuscript is thought to date to the mid-fifteenth century,
predating
Thomas Malory's 'Morte d'Arthur'. This would make it the earliest
Arthurian
text written in English prose. The text is reproduced for individual
use
only; permission from Medieval Institute Publications must be obtained

students
and researchers of Renaissance literature. The primary texts provided
are
divided by genre; including drama, satire, poetry, fiction and
sixteenth-century
literary criticism. There is also a reasonable selection of secondary
resources
grouped in the following categories: history, authorship studies,
Elizabethan
authors and links. - Sixteenth-century

- Index
of the Literature of the English Renaissance and Early Seventeenth
Century
The Index of the
Literature of the
English Renaissance and Early Seventeenth Century is useful as a
general
introduction to the works of the major writers of the period. It opens
with a brief bibliography of general studies on the literature of the
English
Renaissance and links to internet resources including one to an
excellent,
comprehensive site of Renaissance e-texts. The index lists over fifty
writers
of the period including the playrights William Shakespeare, Christopher
Marlowe, and John Webster; the poets John Milton and Edmund Spenser;
and
the essayist Sir Francis Bacon; and less well known figures such as the
poets Thomas Traherne and Thomas Carew. -
Furness
Shakespeare library The
Furness Shakespeare Library has made available over the internet rare
and
often first editions of Elizabethan documents contemporary to
Shakespeare,
as well as Shakespeare's own works. By scanning the images of these
rare
texts, the library hopes to inspire interest and learning through texts
most will never have the opportunity to see otherwise. Within this
website
you can browse by author or text. While some texts are complete others
contain title pages or illustrations, or the author's comments. Under
ERIC
(English Renaissance in Context) there are tutorials designed to assist
teachers. The tutorials do not supply answers like study guides, rather
they propose important questions about the text and bring up issues to
be discussed in class. There are tutorials on "Romeo and Juliet",
"Merchant
of Venice", "Richard III", "King Lear", and topics about Renaissance
publishing
and printing.
- 17th

- Index
of poetry in printed miscellanies, 1640-1682
Adam Smyth's on-line
'Index of Poetry
in Printed Miscellanies, 1640-1682' catalogues 41 poetical miscellanies
published during the Civil War and Restoration. Verses are searchable
alphabetically
by title, first line, last line and author. Description fields also
include
titles, dates and page references of the miscellanies. The resource
compensates
for the lack of indices in many of these collections of
seventeenth-century
verse and provides the opportunity to establish quickly a sense of the
predominant themes, topics and verse forms employed by some of the
lesser
known poets of this period

Renaissance, some including links to descriptions and outlines of works
cited. There is also a useful site search facility which can also be
used
to search the Web, although searches do bring up some commercial
websites.Burton
provides a useful introduction to rhetoric for students of classical
and
Renaissance literature and culture and a very good quick reference
source

Jerome
McGann : 'The rationale of hypertext'
This Web page
contains the full
text of Jerome McGann's essay 'The Rationale of HyperText'(1995). The
essay
focuses primarily on the physical character of textual works and
discusses
it from both a literary and a practical, methodological perspective. It
is divided into 3 main sections: 'The Book as a Machine of Knowledge',
'HyperEditing and Hypermedia', and 'The Necessity of Hypermedia'.
-
The
electronic labyrinth
The 'Electronic
Labyrinth' looks
at some of the opportunities presented to writers by the advent of the
Internet and hypertext. It analyses the literary tradition of
non-linear
approaches to narrative, examines recent works that utilize hypertext,
and evaluates the hardware and software available to writers. The site
grew out of a project undertaken in 1993, so some of its contents may
appear
a little out-of-date by now. Despite its age, however, it is still
valuable
as a general introduction to hypertext and to humanities computing. The
web site introduces the vocabulary and terminology of hypertext and
discusses
the implications that hypertext poses to the future of the traditional
book. A section on the non-linear tradition looks at works from
Lawrence
Sterne's 'Tristram Shandy' to J. G. Ballard's 'The Atrocity
Exhibition'.
A further section on literary formats places hypertext in its
evolutionary
context.

Arras
: new media poetry and poetics
This online site
which began as
Brian Stefans' personal website has grown to focus only on how digital
technology has affected the study and research in the field of
experimental
poetry, providing a good overall background for A-Level students,
university
students and perhaps even secondary school teachers. The online journal
questions whether digital technology has been able to expand poetic
techniques.
Some of the techniques researched are interactivity, algorithmic
processes
and digital typefaces. Brian Stefans also wonders whether the internet
will ever replace traditional print text, both critical and fictional.
Although the links change regularly Stefans keeps a selection of
hyperfictions,
hyperpoems and criticism as well as links to his own web writing. The
Arras
journal began in 1996 as a print journal but since 1998 has resided
soley
on the web. One of the latest additions is a link to Robert Fitterman's
anthology of poems which digitally 'sample' existing information in a
high-tech
collage. There is also a link to an electronic reprint of the eight
issues
of Jennifer Moxley's poetry magazine, The Impercipient. Although the
journal
ceased production in 1998, the archived articles are still pertinent to
students of hypertext fictions and poetry with writing by Rod Smith,
Lisa
Jarnot, Bill Luoma, Lee-Ann Brown and many more.

Georgian
theatre 1714-1837
The Georgian Theatre
1714-1837 Web
site provides a useful reference guide to plays staged in London and
the
American Colonies during the eighteenth and early-nineteenth centuries.
The first part of the site lists new plays on the London stage between
1700 and 1810. The second part of the site is the daily calendar of
major
London theatres, 1800-1810. This includes some information about the
actors
and actresses in each play and also, in many cases, the receipts of the
night. The list will therefore be of interest to those studying the
financial
returns of early nineteenth-centuries theatres. The site also features
a checklist of the correspondence of George Colman the younger, and a
calendar
of the colonial American stage, 1665-1774.

The
Female Tatler was one of the first English periodicals intended
primarily for women. Published during 1709 and 1710, it contained
satirical
and morally edifying observations on contemporary life and mores. This
Web site describes the Female Tatler's content and places it in its
historical
context. It contains sample primary texts and short essays on the
periodical's
authorship, publication, and readership. These essays include hypertext
links to footnotes and a glossary. There are also more general essays
on
early eighteenth-century periodical marketing, the historical political
and social context of the Female Tatler, and the genealogy of the
periodicals
of the era. A large section of the site is devoted to the key topics
the
magazine addressed, such as gossip, decorum, celebrity, wit, beauty,
fashion,
and marriage. There is a short but annotated bibliography of secondary
sources.

Second-person
fiction
This Web site
contains a doctoral
thesis on second-person narrative. Dennis Schofield's text is entitled:
'The Second Person: A Point of View? The Function of the Second-Person
Pronoun in Narrative Prose Fiction'. The work explores how analyses of
specifically second-person storytelling might challenge the (Cartesian)
assumptions of much narrative theory. Schofield wishes to use
second-person
narrative to tilt criticism that is obsessed with self towards a more
'sociocentric',
intersubjective, approach. Methodologically, the thesis owes much to CS
Pierce's semiotics and to various post-structuralist developments in
this
field. Scholfield is particularly interested in the fiction of Daniel
Gunn
and the poetics of John Keats.

Shakespeare in quarto [British Library]
This excellent web site provides access to one of the 'treasures'
of the British Library, the collection of 93 copies of
the 21 plays by William Shakespeare printed in quarto
before the theatres were closed in 1642. In addition to
the digital facsimiles of the quarto editions, the site
features: a timeline of events; an extensive section of
background information; secondary essays concerning the
various quarto imprints by recognised scholars; a
section on the 'afterlife' of Shakespeare's plays, from
the Restoration to the present day; a glossary of
bibliographical terms; and pages of references and links.
Background information is provided concerning:
Shakespeare's life; his poems and plays, Elizabethan and
Jacobean theatre; contemporary publishing practices and
print culture; the individual published plays, and those
included in the First Folio that did not appear in
single publications.The most important part of the site
is that devoted to the texts themselves. A simple user
interface enables users to compare two texts side by
side on screen. Drop-down menus list the various plays
published in quarto before 1642 and the different
editions of each play. Where the British library holds
more than one copy of an edition, the user may
additionally select which copy to examine (listed by
owner). The digital facsimile pages have been scanned at
a good resolution and may be magnified for greater
clarity. A 'printer-friendly' version of each page is
also provided. The only possible omission is a search
engine for locating particular textual variations.

(1531)and Count Baldassare Castiglione's 'The Book of

Joseph Hall's 'Characters of Virtues and Vices' (1608).

Shakespeare and his critics
contains essays on
Shakespeare, his tragedy "Hamlet", and the unfortunate
character of Ophelia. The letter on Ophelia from
"On Some of Shakespeare's Female Characters" was written
by Helena Faucit, a nineteenth-century actress from
Covent Garden and Drury Lane. The essay not only reveals
nineteenth-century ideas about the character of "Ophelia",
but also an actress' dramatic interpretation of the
character. There is an essay by Anna Jameson, a
Victorian feminist who signed various petitions to
further the progress of women's rights. She wrote
briefly on the character of Ophelia, which is no
surprise due to the popularity of the character with
Victorian women, and the 'Ophelia Trend' that
perpetuated the cult of invalidism and female weakness.
As well as the essays, the author of the website has
included a bibliography for Ophelia.

Shakespeare authorship sourcebook
Mark Alexander's
online database is a site initially inspired by the
enduring debate over the authorship of Shakespeare's
plays. Alexander is an 'Oxfordian', believing that
Edward de Vere, the 17th Earl of Oxford, was the hand
behind the works of Shakespeare. The most useful feature
of the site is perhaps the fairly extensive database of
electronic texts from the sixteenth and seventeenth
centuries, including fiction, drama, verse. The site
also features: articles related to the Oxfordian debate;
chronologies of the lives of Oxford and Shakespeare; a
links page; a page devoted to the writings of prominent
Oxfordians and a page on Shakespeare and the law.

L.E.L.'s "Verses" and The Keepsake for 1829
Edited by Frederic Mansel
Reynolds, A Hypertext Edition by Terence Hoagwood, Kathryn Ledbetter
and Martin M. Jacobsen. The Keepsake, a magazine popular with
fashionable women as gifts, was published from 1827-1857. The red
silk bound publication contained engravings of socialites, images of
exotic locations, and illustrations of romantic stories, as well as
poetry and pose always consrvative in content. William Wordsworth's
works appeared in several volumes. This website outlines the purpose,
the intended audience, the actual publication, and those that edited
the profitable journal. There are few images, and equally few
examples of prose and poetry. However, the background of the journal
is well researched and cited, and could be of use to those studying
nineteenth-century culture, media, women's studies, and even
engraving. There is a brief biography of Letitia Elizabeth Landon
and her involvement in the gift books.

Jabberwocky variations
a web site devoted to translations
and parodies of Lewis Carroll's popular poem, 'The Jabberwocky',
first published in 'Through the Looking Glass, and what Alice Found
There'. The original poem, renowned for its inventive use of
portmanteau and suggestive nonce words, has been translated into
almost 30 different languages. This site hosts 58 separate
translations, into languages including Afrikaans, Choctaw, Czech,
Esperanto, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Italian, Klingon
(incomplete), Latin, Russian, Spanish, Welsh, and Yiddish. In
addition to the translations there are 23 parodies on the site. A
more useful section consists of extracts from Carroll's original
text, including Humpty Dumpty's exegesis. Carroll's own
interpretative suggestions and pronunciation guides (from his
correspondence) are also reproduced on the site, as are a few short
notes on the origins of the poem, and comments on the difficulties
facing its translators.

the eponymous play by Oscar Wilde. It features both the 1893 French
version (titled 'Salomé, Drame en un Acte') and the 1894 English
translation (published as 'Salome, A Tragedy in One Act'), and
offers a number of extremely useful features such as the ability to
view the two versions side by side (using frames) and the ability to
search for a word or phrase in either of the versions or in both of
them at the same time. It also allows the researcher to browse all
electronic versions of works by Oscar Wilde held in the Modern
English Collection at the University of Virginia.The primary texts
of 'Salome' are accompanied by a biography of Oscar Wilde and a
brief bibliography, as well as by a list of major works and a short
presentation of the genesis and production history of the play.

a useful web resource primarily aimed
at scholars studying the Elizabethan poet Edmund Spenser
(1552-1599). It presents an electronic edition of a collection of
state documents concerning Ireland with which Spenser was involved
in his capacity as secretary in the administration of Ireland during
the 1580s. As such, the site may also be of interest to scholars

transcription of Spenser's 1596 "View of the Present State of
Ireland", including textual notes and supplementary materials. A
third section, entitled 'Other Materials' hosts transcribed
manuscripts, including poetry and prose, relating to the Irish
political and literary context in which Spenser worked and wrote.
