  • Mostly Medieval - Exploring the Middle Ages
    Mostly Medieval: Exploring the Middle Ages http://skell.org/SKELL/index2.htm
    After researching and writing a novel set in 13th century Scotland, Susan Wallace decided to develop a Web site that would contain information about heraldry, myths, religion, and medicine during the Middle Ages. The site is divided into seven thematic areas, including "Ballads," "Beasties," "Heraldry," and "Medicine." In the "Ballads" section, visitors can read a complete text version (or synopsis) of numerous ballads from the Middle Ages, such as the ballad of Gude Wallace, Robin Hood and Guy of Gisborne, and The Unquiet Grave, where a dead woman expresses her distaste for mourning. The "Heraldry" section is one of the most engaging, as it includes a brief introduction to this time-honored practice, and features a wonderful dictionary of fabulous beasts used as part of the coat-of-arms. These fascinating creatures include the calopus (a wolf-like animal with spiked horns), and the lindorm (a huge snake-like creature). Intended for those with a casual interest in the Middle Ages, this site will be a nice diversion, and perhaps spark a trip to the library for more works dealing with the era. [KMG]

     

  • Greek Medicine
    Greek Gods: Medicine from the Gods to Galen http://www.nlm.nih.gov/hmd/greek/index.html
    Along with their monumental achievements in the fields of architecture and philosophy, the Greeks bequeathed to subsequent generations many insights into the practice of medicine -- along with observations about anatomy and physiology. This online exhibit, sponsored by the National Library of Medicine's History of Medicine Division, offers a brief overview of these discoveries. Before reading the detailed individual profiles, users will want to read the introduction provided here, along with glancing through a timeline that outlines the historical development of medical practices and innovations in ancient Greece. Users can then proceed to read about the various figures in Greek medicine, including Hippocrates and Galen, who was a strong advocate of observation and experimentation. For those looking for additional resources, the site also provides a section offering some recommended works. [KMG]

    Since 1975, the heads of state of the major industrial democracies have met annually to discuss the major economic and political issues facing their respective political entities, and more broadly, the entire international community.

Provided and developed by the University of Toronto, this Web site is an exhaustive guide to the most recent proceedings at this year's G8 Conference, along with substantial documents from last year's G7 gathering. Just about any type of policy brief or document from these very important international gatherings is available on this site, along with frequent updates and responses from the different representatives. Not surprisingly, much of the material is available in different languages, including French, Italian, Spanish, and Russian. For policy makers and those with a concern for international affairs, this Web site will be one of great importance. [KMG]

  • Genome News Network - Home
    Genome News Network http://gnn.tigr.org/main.shtml    --While there is a great deal of information about genes and genomes available in the mainstream media, it may be difficult for many to obtain more objective and scientifically-informed material about these complex subjects. To that end, the Genome News Network provides this bi-weekly publication that features stories about human medicine, microbes, biotechnology, and agriculture. Visitors who may be less familiar about genes and genomes will want to start with the "Quick Guide to Sequenced Genomes," or the basic overview provided in the "What's a Genome" area. The site also features news updates on topics ranging from the African-American Biobank, the first cloned mule, and how geneticists recognize cancer cells. Additionally, visitors can browse through the archives of the News Network (back to the year 2000), and elect to receive the bi-weekly report via email. [KMG]

  • Face to Face: Stories from the Aftermath of Infamy "Face to Face explores what it means to be an American with the face of the enemy. These are real stories of fear, anger, hatred, loyalty and trust."
    [Macromedia Flash Reader]
    http://www.itvs.org/facetoface/intro.html
    In the wake of 9/11, many Muslims around the United States faced a backlash of resentment and anger. This groundswell of emotion was not without parallel, as Japanese and Japanese-Americans faced a similar reaction after the bombing of Pearl Harbor in 1941. The Independent Television Service has developed this Web site to bring a human face to the experiences of Muslims and Japanese people in the United States by collecting these powerful interviews from members of both groups. On the site, visitors can listen to stories from older Japanese-Americans talk about their experiences on the West Coast after Pearl Harbor, and the experiences of Muslims, both young and old. The interviews are divided into thematic sections, such as "Fear," "Internment," "Identity," and "Being American." At another section of the site, visitors can respond to the stories, and a glossary of terms is also provided as background material. Overall, this site serves as a fine educational tool, and for those looking for a number of perspectives on the experience of living in America. [KMG]

     

  • Uncle Tom's Cabin & American Culture--This site from the Institute for Advanced Technologies in the Humanities at the University of Virginia contains a plethora of materials concerning Harriet Beecher Stowe's _Uncle Tom's Cabin_ and the nation's response to it. The site features a complete electronic edition of the first published version of the novel along with the various prefaces Stowe wrote for different editions as well as audio versions of most of the Christian hymns presented in the text. Users can also examine and compare different published editions of the text using 3-D applications as well as view selected manuscript pages and sheets from the novel's original newspaper serialization side-by-side. The site's unique value, though, lies in the documents it presents that elucidate the novel's historical and cultural context. Included here are anti-slavery and Christian abolitionist texts, materials on Sentimental Culture in the nineteenth century, newspaper reviews of the text, articles and notices, and both African-American and Pro-Slavery responses to it. The subsequent media history of the novel's adaptations in songs, children's books, plays, and films is also represented here. As if that isn't enough, the site offers "an interactive timeline, virtual exhibits to accompany the primary material, and lesson plans for teachers and student projects." The entire site -- including the individual text of _Uncle Tom's Cabin_ -- can be easily searched or browsed. [DC]
  • Marxists Internet Archive--Touted as the "most complete database of Marxism hitherto made," The Marxists Internet Archive is an extensive collection of Marxist material, compiled and distributed completely by volunteers.

This site is an invaluable resource for both novices and experts interested in Marxism. [EM]

  • Adolf Eichmann | The Holocaust on Trial - 00.02 | David Irving Britain's Holocaust revisionist | Shofar FTP Archive Directory people-e-eichmann.adolf-memoire Released by the Israeli State Archives, the memoirs of Adolf Eichmann offer a chilling, though self-serving, account of the workings of the Nazi's "Final Solution." Although most scholars dismiss the diary as an attempt by Eichmann to defend or exonerate himself while on trial for his central role in the Holocaust, the manuscript was still sealed in the Israeli archives for 39 years. It was made public at the request of Deborah Lipstadt, a professor at Emory University, who, along with her publisher, Penguin Books, is being sued for libel by David Irving, a British historian whom Lipstadt characterized as a "dangerous spokesman" for Holocaust denial. Under Britain's libel laws, the burden of proof is on the defendant, which means that Lipstadt must discredit Irving's position by demonstrating that he has willfully ignored or distorted the facts. Due to the complicated nature of the trial, it has been heard without a jury, and closing arguments are scheduled for March 13. The Nizkor Project, one of the largest online repositories of primary documents related to the Holocaust, is dedicated to combatting Holocaust denial and has made available the full text of the diary, _False Gods_, (in German only) in .txt, .rtf, and MS Word formats. Users can also learn more about Eichmann and David Irving at Nizkor's special sections on each. The latter includes numerous related documents and links to press updates from the libel trial. Finally, users are strongly encouraged to read D.D. Guttenplan's outstanding article on the trial, which appeared in the February 2000 issue of _Atlantic Monthly_. The full text is available online in four parts. [MD]
  • U.S. Department of State, Human Rights Reports for 1999--The US State Department released its annual Country Reports on Human Rights Practices to the US Congress on February 25.

Appendixes include a list of International Human Rights Conventions, the 54th UNHRC (UN Commission on Human Rights) Voting Record, and the text of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. [MD]

  • Discovery Online, Buildings, Bridges and Tunnels--his recently completed feature from Discovery Online explores three different types of 20th-century engineering marvels: skyscrapers, bridges, and tunnels. The first section includes an interactive skyscraper timeline; some facts about the world's tallest buildings, Malaysia's Petronas Towers; a look into the future of tall buildings; and a link to Discovery's earthquake simulator, which allows users to try to build an earthquake-proof skyscraper. The second section offers a detailed look at Japan's Akashi Kaikyo Bridge, the world's longest and tallest; tours and photos of some of the grandest bridges (IPIX plug-in required); and an article on bridges of the future. The last section of the site focuses on tunnels with a look at Japan's Seikan Tunnel, the largest in the world; a discussion of some future tunnel technologies; a photo gallery of some of the world's subways; and an online quiz. Accessible without being simplistic, this site is a nice diversion for engineering-minded users of all ages. [MD]
  • BookmarksPlus - The Ultimate FREE Web-based Bookmark Solution--Yet another in a fairly recent wave of free online bookmark managers, BookMarksPlus offers complete portability, allowing registered users to access their bookmarks from anywhere in the world. Unlike some of its peers, BookMarksPlus permits users to create and store an unlimited number of folders and bookmarks. Another value-added service is an optional weekly status check which informs readers if any of their links have died. Users can also choose to make some or all of their bookmarks publicly accessible, creating an open directory of sorts. Bookmarks are added by manually typing them in, setting up a single click option in the user's personal toolbar, or importing the existing bookmarks from their Netscape or Internet Explorer browsers. While moving and arranging bookmarks within the folders is a bit cumbersome with BookMarksPlus compared to browsers, this is still a very useful free service for users who travel or switch machines often. Users should also note that, while optional, the site does ask for personal interest information which it uses to display targeted advertisements. [MD]
