| English Poetry 1579-1830: Spenser and the Tradition (large-scale archive of literary texts in the era of Spenser, including primary texts, biography, and criticism; "the 25,000 records in this largely full-text database follow developments in English poetry from the publication of the Shepheardes Calender in 1579 down to Spenser's successors among the nineteenth-century romantics. The archive presents poets as readers — imitators and emulators, critics and biographers — engaged with literary traditions that were complex, dynamic, and embedded in social networks"; "the archive aims to document how each writer was read by contemporaries and successors, gathering over 10,000 poems linked to commentary and biography for more than a thousand writers from all parts of the English-speaking world") (David Hill Radcliffe, Virginia Tech U.) |
