British Comparative Literature Organisation

If you want to study literature, whether of English or other language origins, rather than read actual works online, this is where to come. The homepage offers the publications of the BCLA itself, but clicking on Other Sites of Interest leads to very good supplementary lists. These include, for instance, links to websites exploring fields such as Irish poetry and children's literature, alongside many studies of the literature of various nations. Journals studying literature, both British and otherwise, are also listed, as are websites that assist with translation. Finally, the Dictionaries and Reference Works section offers further useful links going - among others - to useful resources such as Brewer's Dictionary of Phrase and Fable (within the slow-to-load Bibliomania website) and to Roget's Internet Thesaurus.
