    "Ygdrasil, A Journal of the Poetic Arts is the first Literary Journal to
    be published on the Internet (1994)."

    The oldest archives are here:

    Newer issues from about 2017 to date are here:

    The ugly old Internet page and archive is here:

    https://epe.lac-bac.gc.ca/100/201/300/ygdrasil/html/2017/17-02/users.synapse.net/kgerken/index.html

    Enjoy!

    Again, nice historical value.

    This is great! I'd never heard of the journal, and see there's a wealth
    of content dating back to 1993 and much of it published in plain text.
    This should keep me busy for many months (and reading poetry is a far
    better pasttime than reading the news these days, so much obliged!).
