The Archives of the Scott Polar Research Institute preserve many of the manuscript sources - journals, logbooks and correspondence - for the history of British polar exploration. The Polar Diaries project aims to make these materials accessible either as blogs or transcripts.
Scott's Last Expedition - the diary of Captain Robert Falcon Scott, RN
The 'Scott's Last Expedition' blog is a chance to relive the daily events of the Terra Nova Expedition, as recorded by Robert Falcon Scott in his famous journal. By republishing the entries as a daily blog, we hope to give the reader new insights into the scale and scope of Scott's experience.
Dividing the text into daily blog entries - combined with a twitter account and RSS feed - and linking to the famous photographs held in the Scott Polar Research Institute, means that the latest communication technology will add an extra dimension to a well known text: the dimension of time. We will follow the expedition's progress day by day, over many months, beginning with its departure from New Zealand, and ending with its tragic and heroic conclusion
