Abstract:
Este artigo analisa representações da experiência de lazer de personagens jovens pertencentes às classes trabalhistas da Escócia, nos romances Trainspotting e Cola, de Irvine Welsh, considerando o contexto histórico em que as narrativas se situam: a era Thatcher. Tal experiência, em meio a uma realidade de diminuição do estado de bem-estar, escassez de oportunidades e desemprego em massa, é atravessada por dois fatores: escapismo, evidenciado pelo uso de heroína; e violência, evidenciado pelo abuso de álcool e por disputas de torcidas organizadas de clubes de futebol, o chamado hooliganismo.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT: Postcolonial scholars have observed how various aspects of the Four Branches of the Mabinogi reflect anxieties of the Norman Invasion of Wales. While these readings often center on examining the Norman influence as an outside threat, this article examines the First Branch of the Mabinogi as emphasizing the importance of wise leadership within Wales, specifically in terms of inter-Welsh interactions. I do this through the exploration of Rhiannon as a fairy mistress, a motif which proliferates the chivalric romance. While scholarship often interprets the fairy mistress as ‘other’ or ‘f

Abstract:
While How Green Was My Valley has been the subject of much criticism, there has been little effort to explain why it was so popular with contemporary Welsh cinemagoers – including with the female film fans who probably represented the majority of its audience. Although the picture has been dismissed as an essentially masculine one, it had much to offer a female audience, whether it was romance, emotional catharsis, attractive costumes, or its timely discussions of gender roles. Cinemagoing was a vital activity for many women in Wales and it is worth exploring how this defining Welsh film might

Abstract:
O artigo discute o impacto do cenário político e social das últimas décadas do século XX na produção literária escocesa, tendo como objeto de análise o romance Trainspotting (1993), de Irvine Welsh. Argumenta-se que o vácuo existencial potencializado pelo abuso de drogas não constitui o tema central da obra e que, na verdade, o livro problematiza o sentimento de letargia de uma geração desiludida com o modelo econômico da sociedade pós-industrial do fim do século XX. As drogas e a consequente inércia dos personagens de Trainspotting são representadas por Welsh como elementos de subversão em op

Abstract:
Although the North British hero Arthur (d. 537) is described in medieval romance as a king, he is not so termed in the earliest documents relating to him. The ninth-century 'Historia Brittonum' states merely that he fought 'cum regibus Brittonum' ('alongside kings of the Britons'), but was himself merely 'dux bellorum'. What this means has been long disputed. It has been taken to represent a senior rank in the Roman army, with Arthur as a commander of cavalry forces fighting up and down Britain. Closer analysis shows this as a fantasy. Comparison with medieval Welsh texts indicates that 'dux b

Abstract:
The paper discusses elements of Celtic origin present in contemporary Polish vocabulary. Polish did not have any direct contacts with the Celtic languages, however, some elements of Celtic (i.e. Irish, Scottish Gaelic, Welsh, Breton) origin entered it via other languages, especially English and French. Additionally, several early borrowings from Continental Celtic spread through Latin, and subsequently the Romance languages, to other languages, including Polish, thus becoming internationalisms of Celtic origin. For the purpose of this paper all such indirect borrowings will be referred to as ‘

Abstract:
Literary evidence for political and social developments in medieval Ireland comes down to us in a variety of languages: Latin; a rich and — by European standards — early production in the Irish vernacular; Old Norse; Middle English; with sparser reference in Old English, Welsh and other nearby linguistic communities. Some of this evidence, tightly circumscribed in time, is also in Anglo-Norman French, and reflects a very different Ireland from that of Arthurian romance. These Anglo-Norman works, composed in Ireland or in Britain on the basis of eye-witness testimony, constitute a unique body o

The History of William Marshal portrays the exceptional life of William Marshal (c.1146–1219) in chivalric terms, while The Awntyrs off Arthure at the Terne Wathelyn provides a counter-example of Arthurian border literature from the Anglo-Scottish borderlands.

The chapter compares different uses of the legend of Troy as a ‘Trojan preface’ to historical and literary texts in medieval England, Wales, and Ireland. Typically used to introduce narratives of nationalist significance, the ‘Trojan preface’ forms a distinctive genre that functioned to establish or confirm myths of national origin. The work of early historians such as Henry of Huntingdon and Geoffrey of Monmouth provides examples of the uses of Troy to construct a particular kind of English identity. In Welsh and Irish texts, the Trojan legend was inserted as a chronological milestone which a

The WWI recruitment drive in Wales was extraordinarily successful.

Inaugurated by a stage play in Welsh by Beriah Gwynfe Evans, performed at a school in Abergele in 1904, there was an Edwardian craze in Wales for amateur theatrical performances by schoolchildren starring Caractacus.

Abstract This epilogue traces a line of descent from the mid-century to the far side of postmodernism and our own contemporary moment. It begins with Raymond Williams in the 1980s urging writers and critics to break from the ‘long and bitter impasse of a once liberating modernism’. Williams’ target was the modernism of the cultural Cold War, its academic, New Left, and mass-cultural inscriptions, and the postmodernism he saw as its heir. In their place, he looked to install a countercanon of mid-century texts, including a communist historical novel by the Welsh writer Gwyn Thomas. This chapter
