The main focus of expansion at Luminarium right now is the completion of a new section entitled "Restoration and Eighteenth Century." This site has been in the planning stages for a long time, but the realization of it was halted by a thing as mundane as a nasty bout of carpal tunnel syndrome. About half of the said section has now been completed, and the projected completion date for the section is by the end of the year.
Concurrent with the creation of the new section, more entries are being added to the Luminarium Encyclopedia almost daily; these entries serve on the most part to illuminate the biographies of the existing authors. The entries consist of biographies, places, legal terms, as well as contemporary documents, such as acts of Parliament, letters, maps, and so on. In addition to this, existing materials are updated, broken links fixed, new resources added, and new e-texts created.
As you can well imagine, it can get quite overwhelming for a single person. If you have expertise on a given author or subject and would like to contribute a biography, research such as essays and articles, or ancillary materials, please contact me. Luminarium has benefited greatly from the contributions of several generous scholars in the past; the major contributors are acknowledged in the "Letter from the Editor."
