Oh, the wonders of internet technologies...

I`ve known for a while now that USyd put theses up online in digital format... But just now, biting the bullet and going to look for Awesome`s thesis with its useful information on Archbishop Wulfstan, I discovered that `digital format` isn`t something ugly and unwieldy which means staring at a screen for hours, but lovely downloadable, searchable and printable PDFs.

Just in case anyone out there has been pining away for lack of access to a Sydney thesis (yeah, i know, not likely), they can be found here.

Wulfstan?

[(Anonymous)]

I'm curious to know, what is the matter of your thesis? I wrote a seminar paper on Wulfstan, Archbishop of York, last semester (hence having the piece for which you were looking), so I'm interested in what you're diving into with your research. Do you have any specific methodology or aspect that you're looking at, or still in the general phases of seeing what has already been written?

is it just me or is it impossible to find the digitised theses you're looking for? the usyd site is one of the more useful ones. but even then, i do searches, and the most random stuff comes up, and nothing relevant even if i'm sure there's meant to be something relevant...

sorry. rant. :)

My Supervisor's thesis was on Wulfstan's sermons - written somewhere in Australia, about 40 years ago. Unfortunately, she had a different surname at the time, and I can't remember it, but I could look it up if you think it might be useful.
