Alpha Testing for the Jonathan Edwards Center
The Jonathan Edwards Center at Yale University, directed by Harry Stout, is publishing the complete papers of Jonathan Edwards in an online edition. About half of his works are being printed, but the rest will be available online. You can read more about the project. For now the project is in alpha testing. I volunteered to find errors, so I’m able to read some of Edwards’s sermons and miscellaneous writings. The online edition lets you save your workspace, print out copies, read edited and annotated manuscripts, and view a digital representation of Edwards’s markings on the manuscript. It’s really quite fun. Once it becomes available, (if it’s affordable) it will be great for researchers to be able to access nearly everything from nearly anywhere. Beta testing is coming soon. Perhaps if you have some computer skills (or even if you don’t) and are interested in history, you could sign up too.
