[Dialogue] A photocopy of Joseph Mathews' graduate thesis

[David Dunn]

Hi Marshall, Karen and colleagues.


I’ve done a quick comparison of the four documents in the Archive (https://icaglobalarchives.org/resources/ <https://icaglobalarchives.org/resources/>) and the photocopy of JWM’s thesis that I have. The four documents in the Archive are the four chapters of JWM's thesis. A quick survey suggests that the only parts of the thesis missing from the Archive copy are the Title page, the comprehensive Table of Contents, the Introduction to the thesis and a few footnotes.

This means that we’ll have the entire thesis with the addition of scans of the Table of Contents (2 pages), the Introduction (4 pages) and the cover.

A few good copy editor souls need to compare the PDF against the photocopy to correct the numbering of a few of the footnotes and other typos that might appear—easy corrections in the PDF


I’ve forgotten whose photocopy I copied (my copy is at least a second generation copy), but that means that there is likely at least one 2nd generation copy in someone else’s hands.

In any case, we’re close to having a pristine PDF of the entire thesis.


This was a pleasing experience of network intelligence.

You can see what we have presently in the Archives under Periodicals here related to his doctoral thesis:  https://icaglobalarchives.org/resources/ <https://icaglobalarchives.org/resources/>.
