This portal, hosted by the University of Oxford, and curated by members of the Faculty of English Language and Literature, makes available thousands of learning resources, all in the public domain or under a Creative Commons licence. The selection of writers is not comprehensive: just over 40 authors are represented, including the mainstays of the Western literary canon: Austen, Dickens, Shakespeare, Milton, Blake, Swift, Joyce etc.; but more neglected writers are there too, including 18th century labouring-class poets Stephen Duck and Mary Leapor. What the resource lacks in breadth it makes up for in the richness of resources which are available, including podcasts, videos of talks and lectures, downloadable electronic texts and ebooks, and contextual essays by members of the English Faculty. A selection of different approaches to literature are suggested by a Themes page which covers Notions of Authorship, Genre and Feminist Approaches to Literature" among others.
