Medieval Castle History, Design of Medieval Castles, Haunted Castles: www.medieval-cast... - 1 views

  •  
    This is a secondary source with information on a wide variety of topics centred around medieval European castles. I usually avoid this type of site (superficial information, oversimplification) but this one has some beautiful images and it's a topic students usually enjoy.

MGH - 3 views

  •  
    You'll need to be able to read German and Classical Latin, but once those minor hurdles are overcome this is a rich collection of primary sources on early German history. I only had a brief peek but it seems to focus on ancient & medieval Germany. I guess they're written in Latin as it was the lingua franca of Europe at the time. They're organised into books with chapters and indices so it's unlikely they were written in Roman times (or at least it seems so to me).

    Actually, the MGH is a collection of sources mainly for medieval Germany (of course including areas that are not German today), initially started with the intent to create a complete edited version of sources for the middle ages. They are in fact organised by type, like legal documents, letters, chronicles, etc., whereas chronicles are also organised by author. It's an invaluable reference for everyone doing work in medieval history. By the way, the link you saved doesn't work, I'd instead use this one: http://www.mgh.de/dmgh/

Catalogue of Digitized Medieval Manuscripts: About Us - 0 views

  •  
    I'm not sure if this site has digitised medieval manuscripts there or if it functions as a search engine for the rest of the web, but either way it's a good place to find medieval primary sources.

Catalogue of Digitized Medieval Manuscripts: Search - 0 views

  •  
    You'll need a bit of medieval Latin for this site, but once that minor hurdle is overcome this is a godsend. It's chockers with scanned images of medieval manuscripts, most of them in Latin.

    A large collection of images of medieval manuscripts however you can't zoom to a close focus and there aren't translations, except for a brief description of what each page on the manuscript contains.

Archaeology in Europe Educational Resources - 0 views

  •  
    Has some small excerpts from medieval texts with accompanying translation and explanation. Not a whole lot there (unless you pay for premium access...) but would be useful for student research into medieval Britain/Constantinople/Vikings). Some pretty images for classroom resources there, too.

Bodleian Library: Western manuscripts to c.1500: Browse images - 0 views

  •  
    Excellent images of the manuscripts to a high level of detail, however no translations available. When will these people realise that everyone's Medieval Latin is a little rusty these days?

Parliament Rolls of Medieval England | British History Online - 2 views

  •  
    These medieval parliamentary records have just been released. They're part of the 'premium content' section but it's only 30 pounds per year to access so might be worth it.

Narrative Sources - 1 views

  •  
    Has Dutch and English sections so those of us whose medieval Dutch is a little rusty can still use the site. How thoughtful!

WORLD HISTORY SOURCES - 0 views

  •  
    A site with primary sources that also guides students in source analysis/evaluation. It's run by George Mason University (they do a lot of the heavy lifting when it comes to open-access digital history. Good on 'em!).
