Bloomsbury Cultural History

The Bloomsbury Cultural History website provides an overview of cultural history written primarily for secondary and undergraduate students. The content is divided by into Period, Place, and Topic, allowing users to explore the subject in a guided fashion. The actual resources on this website consist of a digital version of Bloomsbury’s Cultural History series of books, with each series covering a specific topic in cultural history through time. A collection of additional e-books provides additional depth to specific topics. A small, but growing, image collection allows users to see the artifacts discussed in the textual materials. Hyperlinks to subject terms and related content are provided, aiding users in further research. This website is tightly focused and compact, providing an excellent starting point for users to conduct research about cultural history. The pace of expansion should not overwhelm users and will continue to provide new and updated information, keeping the website relevant for the years to come.
