- Description
- Iter: Gateway to the Renaissance is a non-profit research
project to increase access to all published materials pertaining to the
Middle Ages and Renaissance (400-1700), through the creation of online
bibliographic databases. There are 8 databases/resources currently
available to Rutgers:
Iter Bibliography
Citations for books, journal material (articles, reviews, review articles, bibliographies,
catalogues, abstracts
and discographies) are included, as are citations for essays in books (including entries in
conference proceedings,
festschriften, encyclopedias and exhibition catalogues) pertaining to the Middle Ages and
Renaissance (400-1700).
There are online lists for the journals
http://www.itergateway.org/journal_titles.cfm and the
scholarly collections
http://www.itergateway.org/iterbooks.cfm that have been indexed.
Updated: Daily
International Directory of Scholars
Combines the information in the directories of the Renaissance Society of America (RSA) and
the Sixteenth Century Society and Conference
(SCSC). Members of these societies provide affiliation and addresses as
well as detailed information on their research and teaching careers.
Updated: Regularly, as supplied by the RSA and SCSC.
Iter Italicum
Online version of Paul Oskar Kristeller's Iter Italicum,
the most comprehensive finding list available of previously uncataloged
or incompletely cataloged Renaissance humanistic manuscripts found in
libraries and collections all over the world. Originally published in
six volumes between 1963 and 1992, it is an essential tool for any
scholar working in the fields of classical, medieval and Renaissance
studies. See print: Iter Italicum: a Finding List of Uncatalogued
or Incompletely Catalogued Humanistic Manuscripts of the Renaissance in
Italian and other Libraries. (Alexander Library)
Update: Static
The Medici Archive Project
This evaluation version of MAP's Documentary Sources
database currently describes 200 volumes of documents in the Medici
Granducal Archive (Archivio Mediceo del Principato, 1537-1743), with
document records for approximately 10,000 letters and biographical
records for approximately 11,000 people.

Baptisteria Sacra
Offers descriptions of baptismal fonts from the early Christian
period to the 17th century. The link currently leads to the project web
site, where you can learn more about the project and search sample
records. Eventually access to the full index will be available through
a subscription to Iter.
Updated: Uncertain
The Electronic Capito Project
Provides the text of letters from and to Wolfgang Capito
(1478-1523), either unpublished or published before 1850 and therefore
difficult to access. The link currently leads to the project web site,
where you can learn more about the project and search sample records.
Updated: Uncertain
Iter also provides online access to selected issues of two journals that are cataloged and
linked in IRIS: Aestimatio: Critical Reviews in the History of Science and Renaissance
Quarterly.
