These links are an ever growing compilation of what are, essentially, my bookmarks. I've attempted to break them up loosely by category but otherwise they are listed in no real particular order. Happy surfing!
Steve Ray's "The Defenders of the Catholic Faith"This is an incredible website, boasting not only a Studies and Writings page, but also an extremely active bulletin board, and extensive links list, and several other goodies. People of all walks of faith are welcome, and participate freely on the board. Naturally, though, the focus of the site is for Catholic Apologetics (explaning why Catholics believe and do what they believe and do). The page is nicely laid out in frames format, making for easy access to the whole.
New Advent Catholic Links
Best described as a "Catholic Links Hub," New Advent is the home for the Catholic Encyclopedia, Catholic Answers, the Vatican, EWTN, and an on-line version of the Holy Bible (for those of us with cumbersome Bibles, and limited briefcase space, bookmark this page! - it's really helpful when one's reading religious tracts that fling about uncited verses...and besides, wouldn't you keep His "loveletter" nearby?).
Catholic Answers
Although the format is a bit grating on the eyes, Catholic Answers (the website of the radio program and apologetics ministry) is a wonderful place to start for "user-friendly" (a.k.a. Non-Ph.D.ed-Theologian) Catholic Apologetics. The site utilizes a search engine, for easy access, and includes both text and realplayer answers.
C. S. Lewis: 20th-Century Christian KnightOne stop shopping and mega-links to one of the best authors of all time!
The Republic of Pemberley
A board I regularly frequent, The Republic of Pemberley is a "haven in a world programmed to misunderstand obsession with things Austen." The site is basically a compilation of discussion boards, ranging in interests from Jane Austen's novels, to a movies, books, fanfiction and rambling. There are several links to other related site, not the least of which is "The Mysterious H.C.'s Jane Austen Information Page." If you think you might be staying around for a bit, please visit the newcomers board and introduce yourself - or else a very nice, but very firm Pemberlian might remind you to do so!
Pride and Prejudice Paradise
An awfully funny page that boasts several "didyouknowisms" about the 1995 miniseries. Particularly check out her pages for those who obsess over the film...perhaps a tad too much!
Dante's Divine Comedy
As I write this, I am containing myself from jumping up and down. Some wonderful person has put not only the entire Divine Comedy on the web, but has hypertext it, with a search engine, and access to several artists' illustrations! Just remember, it's named a Comedy because you're supposed to get out of the "Inferno!"
Amazon
What's not to like about Amazon? Buy books.
Bibliofind
OK...well, maybe there's something not to like about Amazon. For rare books, their prices can be a bit much. But that's why there's Bibliofind...
ABE: Advanced Book Exchange
...and ABE. Buy more books.
My Amazon Reviews
And, hey, while you're buying books and looking balefully at your wallet (and wondering whether you've run across a subliminal message recently), why not take a look at a reviews I did for Amazon? (Ah, ever the Oxford Scholar am I!)
Please go to The Christian Guide to Fantasy's page of links.
+JMJ+ The Snyders HomepageA page in progress for my family - which I'm rather proud of (both the family and the page). And while you're there, do sign my father's GUESSbook - he'll really appreciate it!
Franciscan University of Steubenville
My alma mater! Franciscan University of Steubenville (hereinafter referred to as "FUS" or "Steubie-U") is a wonderful wonderful wonderful university - a preeminent example of Catholic Higher Learning. Their focus of study is, naturally, theology and philosophy, but their other courses are excellent as well. Where else can one major in Drama with no fear of compromising the Faith? Where else can one participate in the Great Books Program with no fear of Marxist or Liberal views ever being imposed? Where else can one participate in the Household System, wherein we grow in our walk with the Lord by covenanted brother or sisterhood? Those four years of life are the ones which greatly form the adult person - why not form oneself in a place the Lord Himself has blest.
Weird Al's Homepage
Perhaps I oughtn't put these two side by side, and hopefully in a while I'll rectify this odd juxtaposition, but, hey, after a long night of term-papers, sometimes it helps to "Dare to the Stupid."
The Ohio Theatre Alliance
Professor Shawn Dougherty, one of my wise mentors at Steubie-U, is the current president of the OTA, which - among other activities - also holds open auditions for both acting and tech positions in the Ohio area.
Waiting for Dating
The beautiful WFD site is owned and maintained by a very good friend of mine, Lauryl Lane, whom I met through the Republic of Pemberley. Also check out her Always Austen page. Hey, I'd say courtship and the Regency go hand in hand!
Linneaville!
And if you've a moment, drop by the cyberville of the most wonderful Swedish Pemberlian (and another excellent writer) I have regular chat-contact with, Linnea Anglemark!
Heather Marie's Home Page
Yet another Pemberlian, and this time from Utah! HM is an fellow writer - make sure you check out her photographs and bookshelf!
Tilneys and Trapdoors ~ A Webpage, by a Lady
Yet another Pemberlian, Mags, whose magnificient site dedicated primarily to Jane Austen - and, even more specifically to the "Cult of Da Man", a.k.a., Henry Tilney of Northanger Abbey fame - this site also includes a bulletin board, and several pieces of excellent fan fiction.
