Eighteenth-Century Resources

http://andromeda.rutgers.edu/~jlynch/18th/

Eighteenth-century Resources, compiled by Jack Lynch of Rutgers University, is an annotated gateway to a wide range of web pages relating to the eighteenth century. The site is relatively straightforward to navigate as there is the option to either search or browse the resources. Links are divided into the following categories (which are further subdivided):

  • Art, Architecture, Landscape Gardening;
  • History;
  • Literature (and Electronic Texts);
  • Music;
  • Philosophy;
  • Religion & Theology;
  • Science & Mathematics;
  • Other Fields;
  • Professional Resources and Journals (including calls for papers);
  • Home Pages of people working in the eighteenth century.
The search facility provided on the site is basic as it is only possible to search on a single keyword and keywords are automatically truncated. There are, however, plans to introduce a more sophisticated search engine in the future. Material is provided in English and is available free of charge. This site provides a useful starting point for locating web resources relating to the eighteenth century.
