New Bloomsbury Collections
June 10, 2025 | Library News

Wright Library recently trialed and has now purchased perpetual access to three new collections on Bloomsbury’s Theology & Religion Online (TARO) platform.
Ancient Christian Writers brings together major works of the earliest Christian theologians from the late-biblical and patristic periods, including letters, biblical commentaries, theological treatises, works of philosophy, and martyrdom narratives.
Classics of Western Spirituality: Pre-1500 and Classics of Western Spirituality: Post-1500 together contain 137 historical spiritual texts including poems, songs, essays, theological treatises, meditations, mystical biographies, and philosophical investigations, with scholarly introductions and bibliographies of both primary and secondary materials. In addition to Christian materials, works on Islamic, Sufi and Jewish spirituality are also included.
Links to Theology & Religion Online, these and other TARO collections and other library databases are all available in the Wright Library Databases A-Z list.
