Site Map/Guide Contents
The Cervantes Project web site is divided into several distinct
categories. Links to these sections are present on the toolbar to the

below.
Main Site Areas
-
Bibliography
The Bibliography section contains a collaborative effort on the part of
professors and researchers from Texas A&M University, the Centro del
Estudios Cervantinos, and others from countries around the world to
compile the Cervantes
International Bibliography Online and the Anuario Bibliográfico Cervantino
which are described below.
-
Cervantes International Bibliography Online
-
The
Cervantes International Bibliography Online
(CIBO)
is a comprehensive record of all significant
books, articles, dissertations, reviews, and other scholarly
materials related to Cervantes' works and life.
The CIBO is
compiled with the assistance of an international team of
collaborators,
and produced
in the Department of Modern &
Classical Languages,
Texas A&M University,
in cooperation with the
Center for the Study of Digital
Libraries (CSDL) -- part of the TAMU Engineering Program --
and with the financial support of the Centro de Estudios Cervantinos,
Alcalá de Henares (Spain).
-
Anuario Bibliográfico Cervantino
-
The ABC is published annually in the Fall as an incremental
bibliography to supplement the cumulative Cervantes International
Bibliography Online (CIBO). It follows the same organization and format as
the CIBO and aims to include everything published during the previous year
plus two indexes: 1) Authors, reviewers, editors and translators;
2)
Subjects and Names.
Texts
The Cervantes Digital Library (CDL) is a digital library of Cervantes's
complete works in
several versions (princeps, old-spelling, modernized,
English) along with the
interfaces, hypertext links, and search engines to facilitate their
use
at multiple
levels. Our goal is to develop a collection of texts and editions
fully integrated
with the other components of the
Project (Bibliography, Images, and Links).
The (CDL) is a project developed in
collaboration with the Center for
the
Study of Digital Libraries and
Prof.
Fred Jehle of Indiana-Purdue University, and receives financial
support from the College of Liberal Arts, Texas A&M University, and the
Centro de
Estudios Cervantinos, Alcalá de Henares (Spain).
