British Literary Manuscripts Online, c. 1660-1900 presents facsimile images of literary manuscripts — including letters and diaries, drafts of poems, plays, novels, essay, journals, and more — from the Restoration through the Victorian era. It encompasses extensive materials related to major British literary figures from the Bronte sisters to Sir Walter Scott to Oscar Wilde.

For the first time, this valuable resource lets instructors and students bring these manuscripts directly into the classroom, providing unique access to the authors' social networks, attitudes, and education, as well as the development of their writings. Scholars will welcome the rare opportunity to search and review manuscripts online in order to identify items for closer study.

The period from the Restoration to the death of Queen Victoria in 1901 saw the development of Britain as a world power. Correspondingly, the emergence of English literature was a significant and often dominant feature of international culture. Simultaneously, the global ascendance of colonial power and the spread of new thinking about democracy, human rights, and political and social equality cultivated new forms of literary expression — including journalism, the novel, and literary criticism.
