This site is the first installment of the Dante Gabriel Rossetti Hypermedia Research Archive. It currently hosts over 10,000 files, focusing especially on the 1870 Poems, but offering a generous number of commentaries and other materials on all of Rossetti's works, including paintings and design. These are accessed via the Archive button on the first page, and include separate sections for Poems, Pictures, Prose, Translations, Manuscripts, and Periodicals, among others. Works by Rossetti may be browsed by alphabetical or chronological lists. The Archive section also includes a brief biography, chronology, and a bibliography. A short preface to this first release (of four) is offered at the main page, along with a collection of related resources including a number of interesting essays on humanities computing and bibliography. This first phase of the project is regarded as a "research installment" and lacks certain functionalities and materials that are promised for the near future.
