Non-Institute Theses and Dissertations

Description

A large proportion of the doctoral and master's dissertations and theses contained within this series are concerned with the study of English language, and dialect in particular (morphology, phonology, grammar, lexicon, dialect in literature). These draw on previous data gathered through the Survey of English Dialects (SED). Authors have, in some cases, consulted fieldwork Response Books and tape recordings in the Institute of Dialect and Folk Life Studies at Leeds, whilst others have based their researches on the data published in the SED Basic Material series of volumes. Some of the studies have supplemented the SED data with original fieldwork data of their own. The assistance of both Stewart Sanderson and Stanley Ellis is acknowledged in a number of the theses. Other subject areas covered in this series include Indian narratives, West Yorkshire folklore, foreign language teaching and language usage in Cameroon. The bulk of the items in this series were created between 1964 and 1983.
