The
sheer amount of websites, good and bad, devoted to classical
studies is nothing less than staggering.
Here
are three useful sites, all of them informative and
authoritative, which will enhance your study of Greek
and Roman epic.

|
| |
The
Perseus Project. |
| |
The
Perseus Project is the premier scholarly website for studying
antiquity. The online version contains images,
texts, dictionaries — all of it well organized and fairly
quick to access.
 Furthermore,
the CD-ROM version of Perseus, which contains even more
information than its online counterpart, is available over
the local Skidmore network. From "Network Neighborhood"
click on \\cits6\library\cdrom\ perseus\experts.txt for
instructions on accessing the Perseus CD-ROM from your own
machine.

Encyclopedia
Mythica. |
| |
A
searchable database of mythical personae, mostly text but
with some images. If you need fast background information
on a character in our readings, this is your first stop. The
author of the site is Mr. Micha F. Lindemans of the Netherlands,
who works with various contributors on the articles.

Interactive
Ancient Mediterranean. |
| |
Sponsored
in part by the departments of Classics and History at the
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, IAM is an "on-line
atlas of the ancient Mediterranean world designed to serve
the needs and interests of students" at all levels of
education.
