Welcome to the Messolonghi Electronic Library (MEL), an evolving online digital archive project devoted to promoting the scholarship and life of Lord Byron and his contemporaries. The goal of MEL is to further the field of literary theory about Lord Byron through the editing, development, and publication of credible online content. Recent additions to the library include Professor McGann's 2002 keynote lecture, "Romantic Scholarship and Culture, 1960-2001. A Byronic View" and Professor Graham's inaugural lecture for the 2001 opening ceremony of the Messolonghi Byron Society Research Center (MBSRC), entitled "Byron and Greek Mythology".Student Papers delivered at the Annual International Student Byron Conference will be vetted for online publication in the MEL archive, a process including examination and approval by a group of professors from the International Advisory Board.
The Burney Society honours Frances Burney d'Arblay (1752-1840), a woman who recorded everything from Johnsonian wit to George III's fits, from Evelina's entrance into the world to Napoleon's last stand. Her acute observations about her family, friends, and 18th-century society show us how much, and how little, life and literature have changed in two centuries.
The Bologna group of corpus linguists has a particular interest in Corpus-assisted Discourse Studies (CADS) in which such statistical analyses are married to the more traditional kind of analyses employed in discourse studies; there is typically a "shunting" (Halliday) between statistical analyses and close textual reading. The aim of the CADS approach is the uncovering, in the discourse type under study, of what we might call non-obvious meaning, that is, meaning which might not be readily available to naked-eye perusal. Together with researchers at the Universities of Siena and Portsmouth the Bologna group has also devised a new form of CADS, denominated Modern-Diachronic Corpus-assisted Discourse Studies (MD-CADS) where large corpora of a parallel structure and content from different moments of contemporary time are employed in order to track changes in modern language usage but also social, cultural and political changes over modern times, as reflected in language.
