The Baldwin Project seeks to make available online a
comprehensive collection of resources for parents and teachers of
children. Our focus, initially, is on literature for children that is
in the public domain in the United States. This includes all works
first published before 1923. The period from 1880 or so until 1922
offers a wealth of material in all categories, including: Nursery
Rhymes, Fables, Folk Tales, Myths, Legends and Hero Stories, Literary
Fairy Tales, Bible Stories, Nature Stories, Biography, History,
Fiction, Poetry, Storytelling, Games, and Craft Activities.
The mythology section is divided to six geographical
regions: Africa, Americas, Asia, Europe, Middle East, and
Oceania... The Folklore section contains general folklore, Arthurian
legends, and fascinating folktales from many lands... In addition... A
Bestiary, legendary heroes, an image gallery, and genealogical tables
of various pantheons and prominent houses.
The Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy was founded in
