A couple of new academic full-text works of interest, freely available online…

* Joakim Bengtsson. Tentative outline: the Ending and the Solution of Conflicts in [? name truncated, title not on document – probably “…the Fiction of H.P. Lovecraft”]. 10,000 words, seems to be a Masters dissertation? Sweden, but in English. The author appears in the cast list for the Swedish Lovecraftian short movie “Fyren” (‘Keeper of the Light’, 2009).

* Johan Wijkmark. “One of the Most Intensely Exciting Secrets”: The Antarctic in American Literature, 1820-1849. Karlstad University, 2009. Seems to be a PhD thesis, prettified as a monograph by the university press. In English.
