Bibliography of Theses and Dissertations

The M.A. dissertations, M.Phil and PhD theses completed in the Department and Centre for English Local History, now approach 500 in number, representing an important part of the academic scholarship on English Local History. These bibliographies, complementing the Friends' bibliographies of the published works of the Centre, now make the details of this postgraduate research available. Most of the dissertations listed are held in the Centre's headquarters at Marc Fitch House and can be consulted there by arrangement with the Centre's administrator, Lucy Byrne. Most of the theses, held in the univeristy library, are also available to scholars at universities beyond Leicester by the inter-library loan system. The bibliographies aim to provide a useful resource for scholars, in particular current postgraduate students when framing their own research proposals. The staff and students of the Centre are most grateful to the Marc Fitch Fund for enabling this work to take place, and to a former student of the Centre, Dr Peter Diplock for his meticulous care in compiling the bibliographies.
