Two years ago today, I submitted my thesis for assessment. I've finally got round to serialising extracts of it. Read the first post and download the thesis here. More to follow over the next four weeks! #DigitalEthnography #Folklore #Orkney #Place #Space http://lydiacrow.com/2020/03/30/thesis-introduction/
And because WordPress is sometimes a bit rubbish about social media previews in tweets, here's the photo I chose to accompany the first post: The Man and The Osa on our 2016 trip to Orkney (expect this to be the photo-theme of the serialisation!). #Crowditch #TheOsa
The second installment of serialised extracts of my thesis: (most of) the #Folklore part of my Literature Review. #DigitalEthnography #Orkney #Place #Space #LitReview
