Page of links for the pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela
mainly walking tours!

Hobart & William Smith Visual ResourcesIMAGE RESOURCES -- pictures to use to get over not having an art textbook
the
Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem
great site, interesting pictures
other
churches and sacred sites of the Holy Land
organized by a Franciscan -- quite
handy. Good photographs. The plans are not the clearest in
the world, but they're there!
the
tomb of St. Felix, Nola-Cimitile, Italy
built by St. Paulinus of Nola c.
400 -- this page has an image of a mosaic inscription as well!
The Second Temple
Destroyed in A.D. 70
Use with care -- any site about
the lost Temple may be a little cranky. This one looks sound,
but I haven't had time to read it carefully.
Donald Binder, whose site follows,
links to it. That may be a good sign -- he is certainly a scholar.
Second Temple
Period Synagogues
a dissertation reworked into a
web page -- some USEFUL images for the built environment of Jewish worship
before A.D. 70.
Exceptionally nice web design!
Images of Medieval
Art and Architecture -- from medart at pitt.edu
A collection of images of churches
mainly in France and England. Other countries are being added slowly.
Inside each country listing the
buildings are arranged by city alphabetically.
The
PICTORIAL GLOSSARY of Medieval Art and Architecture -- from medart at pitt.edu
This wonderful resource uses frames
and highlighted line drawings to illustrate the terminology of medieval
art and architecture.
It even PRONOUNCES the word for
you!
Monasticism Online
Students ask if there are still
monks and nuns -- the answer is "yes, and you should see their web pages."
The tradition of the scriptorium is alive and well.
Look here for lots of images of
monasteries.

Book for Medieval Studies
"ORB is an academic site, written
and maintained by medieval scholars for the benefit of their fellow instructors
and serious students. All articles have been judged by at least two peer
reviewers. Authors are held to high standards of accuracy, currency, and
relevance to the field of medieval studies." VERY HELPFUL
Search the Bible
This page allows you to search
a number of common versions of Scriptures in an array of languages -- just
what you need to find that miracle scene!
