Medieval
Literature External Resources
This page is a (very)
selective list of some basic medieval websites for students.
It is by no means comprehensive, but does include links for
Chaucer, Dante, Beowulf,
Langland, and a few general medieval resources, intermingled
with a few more esoteric sources I use for my own research.
