Linacre College website

Legg inn av Chris Phillips » 27 nov 2004 22:29:46

Has anyone recently managed to connect to the Linacre College website, which
hosts the web pages of the Institute for Prosopographical Research?
http://www.linacre.ox.ac.uk/research/prosop/home.stm

I couldn't do so when I tried a few weeks ago, and I can't do now. I presume
it has been down for some time, as Google doesn't have anything cached for
it.

I tried the old Prosopon address and got a page updated 3 October
which led me to the following site:

After a bit of experimentation, the following chopped-off URL leads to
the main home page:

Many thanks for this. I see the Institute has changed its name as well as
its website address.

The new website includes a fairly extensive "Directory of Prosopographical
Research", listing research projects (with some links), organised by time
period and geographical area (with an additional section for "Institutional
Projects"):

There's also a list of lectures on the subject. I wonder if they are
open to anyone?

Evidently "Prosopon" has now been upgraded from a newsletter to a bi-annual
journal. I checked with the editor, David Thornton, whether the new
"Prosopon" would continue to be available online, and he replied that it
would be, "bigger and hopefully better" than before.
