Wheaton College (Wheaton, IL) - English Ranging from medieval and classical to modern, this source gives full entrieswith citations of It also cites use by specific authors. Whittick, Arnold. http://www.wheaton.edu/english/resources/medieval/general.htm
Extractions: Although this work focuses specifically on Christian symbols such as the cross, the nimbus, and symbols related to the Passion, Resurrection, and Ascension, it also considers some of the other standard symbols (saints, colors, etc.). While it includes no clear documentation and no index and while it does not specify medieval meanings, it is still a helpful sourceespecially on the biblical topics. After a short introduction on the nature of symbolism, this work addresses a wide range of symbols arranged by topics, including the cross, the Trinity, Mary, Nativity, angels, prophets and patriarchs, and the Eucharist. It also includes a section on the natural symbols (bird and beasts), numbers, the church year, and the liturgy. Although some of the meanings given are clearly modern and indicate that this source should be used with care, it is a good source on a wide variety of topics and includes a good index and bibliography.

Research Collections: Classical Studies Collection get a better idea of what specific titles the classical studies collectioncontains. PA 4505, medieval and modern authors writing in classical Greek http://www.bc.edu/bc_org/avp/ulib/port/protof/coll-clas.html
Extractions: The classical studies collection is developed to support the teaching of the Greek and Latin languages and the study of Greek and Latin literatures in the Classical Studies Department . Emphasis is placed on the classical periods for both languages and on the modern period for Greek. Literature is collected in translation to support comparative literary studies and introductory courses. Modern Greek literature and materials on modern Greek history and culture have been acquired by direct purchase in Greece, thanks to periodic visits by a member of the Department. The bulk of English language and bilingual acquisitions are acquired through Yankee Book Peddler. Given the small size of the budget, great reliance is placed on other, larger subject funds for materials relevant to Classical Studies, e.g., Philosophy and History. Rapid advances in computer and networking technology have resulted in the acquisition of significant electronic resources, including electronic versions of familiar classical studies indexes and digitized full-text editions of primary sources. Classical Studies has been a pioneer in the field of digitized texts and BC has the Thesaurus Linguae Graecae, one of the earliest collections of electronic texts produced by modern scholarship. It also has Perseus, a CD-ROM multimedia product which together with the

Before you even begin to search, you should think of words that describe the concepts that you are working on. Certainly you can look for "black death," or "Michelangelo," but you will also need to think more broadly about your topics. You'll need to search many times to hit all the aspects of your topic.

Extractions: I am pleased to submit this report to the Israel Science Foundation, reflecting the achievements of the project during the past three years. It is my assessment that the work carried out has kept to the basic scientific plan submitted with the grant application, with the adaptations necessitated by the practical aspects of the work as it progressed. The overall timetable has been adhered to, and the completion of the planned work for the three-year period has been achieved. Part 1: Achievements and Results 1. Summary of Achievements and Procedures 1.1 The nature and scope of the project are unprecedented, and therefore it was necessary to devote a good deal of attention to procedures. This being the case, it became imperative to prepare a database which contains a list of as many works of classical and medieval authors as are published. This database is not yet (and may never be) completely exhaustive, but it does contain a substantial number of records, and authors. A list of the authors entered so far is appended. To date the database contains 531 records and it grows continually. 1.2 The initial intention was to work by genres. This was commenced for the historical texts and a substantial number of Armenian historical texts were read, excerpted, entered into the computer and many of them have been translated.

WAHVM Congress, Yokohama, Japan, 8 September 1995 the classical writers, and also that of the medieval authors anew to life . The legacy of the classical authors was summarized by some 16th century http://wahvm.vet.uu.nl/specific/activities/congresses/yokohama.html
Extractions: Mr. Chairman, dear colleagues, Before giving my paper I would like to say a few words in my capacity of president of the World Association for the History of Veterinary Medicine (WAHVM). The programming of today's and tomorrow's sessions is the outcome of close cooperation between dr. Katsuyama and myself during the last year. In this work we were assisted very professionally by the secretariat of the Scientific Committee of WVC 95, headed by dr. Y. Ozawa. The programming of today's Free Communication Session was the prime responsability of the Japanese Society of Veterinary History, whereas the symposium of tomorrow is to be considered as an activity of the World Association. After the WAHVM (established in 1969) became an affiliated member of the WVA in 1979, history sessions were introduced in the programmes of the world congresses. So, after the congresses held in Moscow (1979), Perth (1983), Montreal (1987), Rio de Janeiro (1991) this will be the fifth time that the field of veterinary history is represented in the program of a WVC. In the years between the world congresses, the WAHVM organizes a congress of its own; the last one, being the 27th in the series, was held in Kopenhagen in 1994 and the next one will be held in Vienna in 1996.
