Digitizing Early Modern Suffering

Published

I finally splashed out on a CZUR overhead scanner, which I picked up at a substantial discount from the regular market price.

I strongly recommend anyyone to get one of these. Forget that dishwasher you were saving up for, or the new hairdryer you’ve been promising yourself; for real consumer satori nothing beats an overhead scanner!

Finally I am able to scan my early modern books and upload high quality text-searchable PDF files. I’ve made a modest start with half a dozen works (bound together) on “the horrid Popish Plot”. The collection focuses on martyrs and relgious controversies, and I’m planning to add one book a week, so if that kind of thing floats your boat stay tuned for updates!

UPDATE (June 2024): I haven’t quite managed a book a week, but the online collection is growing. Click here to view it.
