(Phys.org) —Researchers at North Carolina State University have combined scholarship and new technologies to re-create the courtyard of St. Paul's Cathedral in London as it stood in 1622, as well as a historic sermon made by poet John Donne in the courtyard. The project, which is a significant research tool for history, literature and religion scholars, is available online and can also be viewed in a state-of-the-art theater that offers a 270-degree view of the courtyard with high-fidelity acoustics.
