Programs at the University of Virginia
- "This page includes hypertext
syllabi, student and faculty projects, hypertexts of Crevecoeur's
Letters, de Tocqueville's Democracy in America, Henry Adams' Education,
four Twain novels, and a good deal more. In addition, we have an
on-going project on the National Capitol Building where we are trying
to read and re-present that structure as a hypertext, a quasi-sacred
text of national identity : http://xroads.virginia.edu/~CAP/cap_home.html. We also maintain the American Studies Yellow
Pages, a series of subject specific guides for American Studies and
related fields. These current, selective, and descriptive pointers to
internet resources can be found at : http://xroads.virginia.edu/~YP/yp_home.html. Finally, those subscribers who are interested in
the ways in which this site and these assets are integrated into the
teaching and learning process here at Virginia should go to: http://xroads.virginia.edu/~AS@UVA/aspgrm.html."

- The American Studies Center
Aarhus (ASCA), based at the Department of English, University of
Aarhus, Denmark, has established the ASCA Web site. The site, which is
designed to help advance the study of the United States by facilitating
research and teaching in the fields of American history, culture,
literature, politics, media and language, provides three broad services.
- Firstly, the Web site offers
information about ASCA's membership and visiting faculty, its recent
and forthcoming activities, and its library, audio-visual, and
computing resources. The links to recent and forthcoming activities
provide information about conferences and symposia, seminars and
workshops, guest lectures, and graduate seminars.
- Secondly, the site provides
information about and links to a variety of Scandinavian American
Studies resources. These include the Nordic Association for American
Studies (NAAS), the scholarly journal American Studies in Scandinavia
and the NAAS Forum discussion group. Furthermore, there are links to
American Studies resources in Norway, Sweden, Iceland, Finland, and
Denmark as well as to US public and non-governmental agencies in
Scandinavia.
- Thirdly, the site provides Web
links for a wide range of aspects of American Studies. These include
links to art history, literature, diplomacy and foreign relations,
media, gender, music, history, politics and society, journalism, and
race and ethnicity homepages. The ASCA Web site also provides links to
numerous search engines, scholarly discussion groups, American Studies
gateways, newspapers and television sites, organizations and centers,
electronic journals, and US government agencies, as well as access to
materials relating to the use of new technology in the teaching of
American Studies.
- For students who are new to
the World Wide Web, the ASCA Web site provides a brief interactive
introduction to American Studies on the World Wide Web as well as a
link to an index to the Internet from the University of California,
Berkeley.

site includes
links to some of my more frequently cited essays about what AS is,
how to do it or improve it. Most of the site, though, is reserved for
short ("rapid loading") pages of point-n-click links to sites
elsewhere on the Internet."
