Further Resources

There is probably more general theology material available on the Internet than is commercially produced. Most of the resources at present are either bible-centred or overlap with, for example, the teaching of classics or literature. James O'Donnell's name appears again in this section for his course on Augustine which included an electronic mail discussion list where students and international academics met and discussed the weekly seminar

  • The Bible Gateway
    This site enables the user to search a variety of bibles (including German and Latin) for verses or keywords. Its application in the classroom may be a bit limited unless students were required to compare translations of particular words or to seek out certain themes.
  • Learning Hebrew from Macom Networking in Israel
    This page is similar to the Old English page mentioned in the literature section.
  • Interpreting Ancient Manuscripts by Timothy Seid (Brown University). The main focus of this hypertext prsentation is on the process used to study the ancient manuscripts upon which the New Testament is based. While the language discussed is Greek, almost everything is explained with transliterations into English and, where applicable, translations from standard English Bibles. The WWW version has been adapted from a Hypercard stack which is still available from the Humanist discussion list archives.
  • Augustine on the Internet
    The World Wide Web page used by Jim O'Donnell to teach a course on Augustine. Included are Latin and English selections from Augustine's work.
  • Robert Kraft on the Internet
    Robert Kraft, also at UPENN, teaches a number of courses on early Judaism and Christianity. He uses the Web and a gopher server to provide his students with the relevant primary sources. The directory of course materials also include notes for an introduction to humanities computing. Bob Kraft is probably best known on the Internet for his work in connection with the Centre for the Computer Analysis of Texts (CCAT) which contains an archive of biblical and religious texts (also classical, renaissance, and modern).
  • The ECOLE Initiative (The Early Church On-line Encyclopedia Initiative)
    If its stated aims are successful then this promises to be a valuable hypertext encyclopedia for research and teaching alike.
  • Foundations of Theology course materials at the University of Notre Dame
    This site contains two sets of course materials for Foundations of Theology, produced by Jeffrey VanderWilt and Kern Trembath
  • Further resources in theology and religious studies can be accessed from a list maintained by Michael Fraser.
