With the explosion of information on the World Wide
Web, medieval and Renaissance researchers now have ready access to a
wealth of information. The data available on the Internet includes
digitized primary source texts and images, electronic journals and
numerous scholarly listservers and newsgroups.
The following pages in this section are compilations of sites on the Web
that provide valuable information for the medieval and Renaissance
scholar.
- Electronic Journals: as an alternative to
the traditional print journals, several electronic journals have been
created, which often include full-length digitized articles and book
reviews. Also included on this page are links to the "home pages" of the
major print journals in the field, which contain information about
upcoming issues and submission standards.
- Electronic Texts: several hundred of the
texts important to the study of medieval and Renaissance history and
culture have been digitized by various institutions around the world.
Our page provides centralized access to many of the texts currently
available in digitized form.
- Art and Architecture:
along with texts, the visual arts have been a very important source of
information for medieval and Renaissance scholars. This page contains
links to many of the digizited image sites on the Web in the catagories
of Art, Architecture and Illuminated Manuscripts.
- Listservers and Newsgroups: several dozen
electronic discussion groups have been formed on the Internet in order to

discussion groups, along with their subscription information.
