From Videri
A collaborative database on historical literature
Videri aims to advance knowledge about history and historiography by providing an open forum for scholars and students to post information about historical works. Originally founded by graduate students in the History Department at Columbia University in 2004, this site allows any member to edit, revise, and enhance the commentary provided by other members. Most of the database consists of summaries of key works of history, organized by field, as well as interpretive essays on important questions in historiography.
