Dissertations 2012

The annual list of doctoral dissertations completed and in progress provides a reference and record for graduate students, their advisors, and all scholars of Spanish and Portuguese language, literatures, linguistics, and cultures. We have queried all departments that offer the PhD degree in these areas. These departments provide the students, titles, and categories listed. We express sincere appreciation to the departmental representatives who responded to the request for this information. We also beg forgiveness in advance for potential errors and omissions in receiving, interpreting, and compiling this large amount of complicated data.

Each entry appears in the following format: Student’s Name. Dissertation Title. Institution. Dissertation Director. Year of Defense (if applicable).
