The Hervaeus Natalis Homepage has been inspired by the twin
The Peter Auriol Homepage by Russel L. Friedman. The Franciscan Peter Auriol was one of the most fiercest opponents of Hervaeus, so visit this Homepage for any further information of Auriol's thought.

A valuable source of inspiration has been also the excellent entry on Hervaeus Natalis contained in Mirabile. Digital Archives for Medieval Culture, to which we would refer for any further information about the manuscript sheets that conserve Hervaeus’s works.

Other frequented homepage are useful for studying Hervaeus. One is the homepage of Paul Vincent Spade, not least for the extensive list of medievalists’ e-mail addresses and links to further interesting sites found there. A second is Robert Pasnau’s blog In Medias PHIL. As an extension of the Appendix B of the new Cambridge History of Medieval Philosophy (CUP, 2010), see Robert Pasnau’s Provisionalia: Index Librorum Scholasticorum for an expanding electronic repository, including Hervaeus Natalis. Early Modern Scholastics and Scholasticism (1500-1800) is the focus of Jacob Schmutz’ Scholasticon, which includes a great number of bio-bibliographies. A third one is Emilio Panella OP's homepage (E-theca), which contains many information on the Dominicans of the age of Hervaeus.

Another excellent electronic resource is the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy, which includes entries on several of the thinkers who most influenced Hervaeus, like Thomas Aquinas, Henry of Ghent, Godfrey of Fontaines, John Duns Scotus. Entries on Hervaeus and his confrere Durand of St. Pourçain are still missing but long overdue, although their names recur in many other entries.

The thinker from the later thirteenth century who had the greatest impact on Hervaeus was certainly Henry of Ghent. See the Homepage devoted to Henry and run by Gordon Wilson of the University of North Carolina at Asheville. The site includes texts (but not apparatus) from the modern critical edition of Henry’s Summa quaestionum ordinariarum and Quodlibeta. Tobias Hoffmann of the University of Paris Sorbonne is maintaining a huge bibliography of studies on Scotus, a philosopher and theologian who exerted an important influence on Hervaeus.

Hervaeus has polemicized as often as possible with the Dominican theologian Durand of St. Pourçain. The Thomas Institute of the University of Cologne has directed a project of edition of the three versions of Durand’s Sentences commentary, and as part of the project, the editorial team has put on the web (Digital Durandus Research Portal) an annotated version of the 1571 Venice printing of Durand’s I Sentences (third version) as well as a Durand bibliography.

Jean-Luc Solère (Boston College, Boston) has established a great Site of Electronic Ressources for Medieval Philosophy Studies in connection with the SIEPM.
