An index page from John Amos Comenius's Orbis Pictus, 1668. [1]

Introduction

The Monoskop Index brings together on one page selections from several sections of the Monoskop Wiki and Log. It contains topics, concepts, practices, places, events and persons relevant to the study of the arts and humanities. Its form combines elements of book index, library catalogue and tag cloud, listing alphabetically sorted topics with links to pages of organised source material.

By far the largest part is made up of the top 500 thematic tags from Monoskop Log, each linking to eight or more full-text publications, mostly books, while some themes also have dedicated wiki pages. The 100 persons--artists, makers and writers--are taken from the Features section and their linked wiki pages consist mainly of chronologies and bibliographies of their work, some accompanied with biographies. Artistic and cultural techniques and practices are represented by about 70 articles with wiki resources. Twentieth-century avant-garde and modern art is also organised by country, currently in 23 entries, while more than 50 included city entries map the "alternative base".

The index continues to grow as new material is added to the website. For an overview by section, see Contents.

Wiki

Monoskop is a wiki where anyone can edit any article and have those changes posted immediately. Learn how to edit pages.

Design

Current Monoskop skin was inspired by Moving Brands' Wikipedia Identity proposal and Michael Murtaugh's customized MediaWiki Monobook skin, and uses Fedra Sans font designed by Peter Biľak, along with Greek Font Society's Neohellenic font for the headlines.

Hosting

Monoskop runs on MediaWiki software, and is hosted by the Sanchez free art server, maintained by Multiplace.
