Book excerpt: "Wales and the Word: Historical Perspectives on Welsh Identity and Religion describes an analyses the link between religion and the idea of Welsh national identity. It discusses the importance of church and chapel and the way in which the Welsh defined themselves for centuries in terms of the Christian religion." "This volume considers the way in which religion and identity have been intertwined from the seventeenth century through to modern times. It asks whether religion has been part of the essence of Welshness, and whether that is still the case within the multicultural Wales of the twenty-first century."--BOOK JACKET.

Download or read book All That Is Wales written by M. Wynn Thomas and published by University of Wales Press. This book was released on 2017-05-05 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wales may be small, but culturally it is richly varied. The aim in this collection of essays on a number of English-language authors from Wales is to offer a sample of the country’s internal diversity. To that end, the author’s examined range – from the exotic Lynette Roberts (Argentinean by birth, but of Welsh descent) and the English-born Peggy Ann Whistler who opted for new, Welsh identity as ‘Margiad Evans’, to Nigel Heseltine, whose bizarre stories of the antics of the decaying squierarchy of the Welsh border country remain largely unknown, and the Utah-based poet Leslie Norris, who brings out the bicultural character of Wales in his Welsh-English translations. The result is a portrait of Wales as a ‘micro-cosmopolitan country’, and the volume is prefaced with an autobiographical essay by one of the leading specialists in the field, authoritatively tracing the steady growth over recent decades of serious, informed and sustained study of what is a major achievement of Welsh culture.

Download or read book The Place-Names of Wales written by Hywel Wyn Owen and published by University of Wales Press. This book was released on 2015-02-15 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Place-Names of Wales was originally published in 1998 and reissued in 2005 in the Pocket Guide series. This current updated publication adds some thirty entries, which importantly take into consideration more recent research. The entry for each place-name provides details of historical forms and dates; analyses each name into its component linguistic elements; tracks the later linguistic development of the name and the influences upon it particularly within a bilingual society; compares the name with similar names elsewhere, and interprets that meaning within the history of Wales and in the local context having regard for the landscape and changing land-use. In addition to explaining the link between place-names and language, history and landscape, the introduction includes a section on the significance of place-name study, and a short section to allow non-Welsh speakers to understand some relevant sound-changes.

Download or read book Welsh-English, English-Welsh Dictionary & Phrasebook written by Heini Gruffudd and published by Hippocrene Books. This book was released on 2005 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the dominance of English in Wales, the Welsh language is very much alive. It is used in conversations every day, in public bodies, in official documents, on road signs, and, increasingly, is required in primary school education. Around half a million people speak Welsh fluently in Wales today, while many more have some knowledge of the language. The phrasebook includes situations that one is likely to encounter in Wales, and the 6,000-word, two-way dictionary gives essential vocabulary words for basic comprehension. The grammar section enables users to form simple sentences, while a common-sense pronunciation guide provides a glimpse of the complex phonetic structure of Welsh. Information about Welsh culture and life complete the work.
