Jen the Librarian | PhD Diaries: Episode 4 - Answering your questions @JentheLibrarianreads | Uploaded August 2023 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
This is the full video I've been threatening to film for a while: exactly what my PhD is, and answering your questions like: what even is a PhD? How does it work? Why am I doing this? And more.
If you want some chilled out music, check out my PhD playlist:

The Owen/Sassoon letter I mentioned: rictornorton.co.uk/owen.htm
And a quick note to clarify something I say in this video. Watching it back I think it seems like I'm saying there is no evidence that Owen was Homosexual - this is very much not true. What I was saying is that there is no definitive evidence or declaration, from Owen or any family member, that was "hidden" in the Owen archive that people were prevented from reading. Such strong and unequivocal evidence doesn't exist (but plenty more evidence elsewhere does).
