Starting to think about topics for your dissertation can be a daunting process and that is where our English Literature and History dissertation guides can be a great tool to help you! Whether you have already decided on a topic, or you’re hoping to find something to spark your interest, these guides provide a themed 'tour' of our holdings here at Special Collections. From renowned authors like Agatha Christie and Daphne du Maurier, to documents spanning politics, art, religion and more, using material from the Special Collections is a great way to write an interesting and unique dissertation.
This supplementary guide explains how to properly search an archives catalogue, where to find archival material across the UK, and how to use/cite primary sources in your writing.
