The Romance
Languages Resource Page (http://humanities.uchicago.edu/romance/)
- Provides a large and varied collection of links to
authentic material in French, Spanish, Italian and Portuguese
for use by the language teacher. Also included on the page are
links to University language departments, both in the United
States and abroad, and a collection of links to pedagogical
resources online. Links were chosen for their potential utility
to the language teacher, either as a source of actual authentic
lanuguage samples, or of information. It is hoped that language
students as well will be able to profit from the collection.
