Resources: Digital Archive of Inaugural Lectures

"Historical studies have revealed the complexity of the pathways through which university philosophical culture has taken part in the development of knowledge from the Late Middle Ages to our times. Nonetheless, till now a full class of documents has been considered only erratically: the inaugural lectures (also known as paginae) of the single university courses given from the Renaissance to the beginning of the eighteenth century. Scholars of university history know that each of the countless inaugural lectures till extant in archives and libraries is an interesting document, revealing the tenets of university culture in a specific place and time; however, few research campaigns have been conducted on these documents with the aim of improving sistematically our understanding of the history of university culture in general, or of specific trends in it. Main obstacles to these enterprises are the large number of extant documents and their dispersion. DArIL aims to facilitate scholars to overcome these difficulties, providing them with an access to a digital collection of searchable descriptions, digital photo-reproductions and codified transcriptions of paginae."

Resources: Mediatheca Franciscana

"La biblioteca del Sacro Convento di Assisi si è costituta sin dal sec. XIII come biblioteca della comunità francescana residente presso la chiesa-santuario di S. Francesco. Gli studiosi sono ormai concordi nell’affermare che nel Sacro Convento fu attivo uno scriptorium che realizzò innanzitutto  manoscritti liturgici e omiletici destinati al culto ed all’attività pastorale e nel contempo manoscritti biblici, filosofici e teologici destinati allo studio. La produzione di questo centro scrittorio è documentata anche grazie all’uso di una grafia particolare, denominata littera assisiensis.

Accanto alla produzione libraria propria del centro scrittorio assisano notevole è stato l'arricchimento della biblioteca medievale dovuta ad acquisizioni di manoscritti prodotti in altri luoghi. La biblioteca di Assisi fu la più ricca biblioteca francescana d’Europa sino alla fine del secolo XIV, paragonabile alle prestigiose biblioteche monastiche e a quelle universitarie. L’inventario redatto da fra Giovanni di Iolo nel 1381 ne è la più significativa testimonianza.[...]"

Resources: Digital library of late-antique latin texts (digilibLT)

"The digilibLT project is planning to offer a complete database of late-antique Latin authors and works, as well as an exhaustive canon. Access to the canon and the database is free. Search windows are designed to allow users to search either the entire collection of texts or a selection of them (by author, period, or type of text) or single authors and works. Texts can be downloaded freely, which will allow individual scholars to work on their areas of interest with maximum flexibility. Texts are codified according both to the TEI and the Beta coding standard;[...]

Resources: The Serving Soldier

"The Serving Soldier Collection Library contains themed selections of photographs and other archives drawn from up to fifty of the eight hundred or so personal paper collections held by the Liddell Hart Centre for Military Archives at King's College London which have been selected for digitisation as part of the Serving Soldier project - a rich and and varied body of archive material that illuminates the colourful and eclectic careers of servicemen from the 1880s until 1945.
Collection Library material includes personal diaries, correspondence, photograph albums, detailed reports and memoranda, maps, posters and oral histories exploring war, peace, diplomacy and casting light on the many alternative careers pursued by servicemen - for example as explorers, inventors, writers and artists.
Among the many themed collections are snapshots of daily life in the British Empire, examples of sometimes shocking photography of the ill-fated Gallipoli Campaign during the Great War, and details of the often complex British involvement in the troubled North West Frontier region and Afghanistan."
