VIC PAL — A Web Companion to Victorian Literature & Culture

Please remember:  In synch with the ethos of the web, the list below is always in the making.  Please let us know if you've made new discoveries as you make your excursions into cyberia, and please check out related web pages on this site as well.

Note as well that, while many web sites may be informative and useful, they are typically no substitute for the more sustained scholarly discussion of a book.

This site is under development, so please check it regularly. Since the Victorian Web features hundred of links relating to Victorian England, this site tries to duplicate as little as possible. Thanks.
