“Transmediterranean History” is a commented anthology of primary sources that aims at facilitating access to transmediterranean themes and their documentation for researchers, teachers and amateurs. The database uses Media-Wiki software to provide access to epochally grouped and chronologically ordered excerpts of primary sources in their original language and in translation. These excerpts are equipped with a commentary, which furnishes details on the author and his/her work as well as the contents and context of the respective passage, and then analyses and interprets the excerpts within a wider thematical framework. A list of the excerpt’s available editions and translations, a bibliography containing the cited literature and recommended readings as well as a list of keywords complement the commentary. “Transmediterranean History” is searchable and will hopefully soon offer the possibilty of creating a reader catering to the users’ individual needs with the help of the Book Creator.
