125 Online Film and Moving Image Studies PhD Theses

"How will I ever find a PhD thesis in here?": images from The Name of the Rose (Jean-Jacques Annaud, 1986)

The ever industrious, but not nearly modest enough, Film Studies For Free has just published a new page to house a permanent and, thankfully, growing list of openly accessible, English-language, online PhD theses in Film and Moving Image Studies.

Like its other, jaw-droppingly essential pages, it is accessible from the FSFF contents index in the right-hand sidebar. So, hopefully you won't need a PhD to find it again in future.

It currently lists links to 125 theses on an enormous range of film and moving image studies topics, and it will be kept constantly updated as new items come to light.

Talking of which, if you know of any relevant, existing online theses that should be added to the list or, alternatively, of online research repositories that FSFF hasn't yet explored, please, please, please email FSFF.

David Sterritt's Online Writings, and an ethical declaration

A quick post to note that I've added a new site to Film Studies For Free's list of 'Individual Authors' Online Writing Of Note'. David Sterritt, author of notable books on Hitchcock, Godard, Gilliam, Altman, has a personal website which has an articles page containing all manner of links to excellent online publications of his on Godard, Coppola, cinephilia, and other topics.

On behalf of FSFF, I will continue tirelessly to fossick in search of such online gems as this, but I am always grateful for any information about similar resources from readers.

I end on an ethical note, as these are the early days of this blog: my recommendations in FSFF posts will always abide by the principles of 'full disclosure' of any relevant (personal, professional, or commercial) connections.
