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. Busco demonstrar de que forma as políticas do governo Thatcher, assim como o pensamento e agenda neoliberais por ela seguidos, são representados como fator relevante para moldar a experiência de lazer da juventude de classes menos favorecidas da Escócia nos romances selecionados.

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 ‘foreign’, I argue that Rhiannon presents an important departure. Rather than being explicitly a foreign entity, she is, instead, Welsh. Pwyll’s treatment of her, then, makes the First Branch a story about inter-Welsh relationships and cautions that tending to women’s needs and voices should be a priority to Welsh leaders, rather than something which is designated as a secondary concern.

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 oposição ao modelo de sociedade profundamente consumista. Ademais, o desemprego massivo acaba criando novas relações sociais entre os homens e as mulheres, o que gera uma forte onda de afirmação que perpassa o machismo, o laddism.

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 bellorum' instead corresponds to the Welsh 'penteulu' ('captain of the bodyguard, chief of the royal host'). As commander of the king's bodyguard, the 'penteulu' was the most important of the 24 officers of the court. He had a position of supreme trust, invariably being the ruler's own son or nephew or another man of rank. Setting out his income and status (which included the right to praise by the official poet of the bodyguard), medieval Welsh legal and other sources are thus the most reliable sources of information on what the Arthur of history was and was not.

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 ‘Celtic elements in Polish vocabulary’. The relevant lexical items have been extracted from a general dictionary of Polish, several other words come from specialized sources.

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 of material, though their value as historical evidence is constricted in two ways: firstly, they are limited to three preserved texts; secondly, they are rigorously selective in their criteria of historiographical relevancy and in their treatment of the native Irish population, culture and political presence.

Abstract:
Celtic studies in Russia which have developed during the twentieth century into a recognised and respectable branch on the tree of humanities owe much to one person who undoubtedly has won a right to be called a patriarch of Celtic studies in Russia, namely Alexander Alexandrovich Smirnov. Mostly known for his pioneering translations of early Irish tales into Russian in the early days of his career he was also prominent scholar of Welsh and Breton covering many aspects of Celtic linguistics and literary studies. His biography, achievements and approach to Celtic studies in Russia deserve better attention both on the Russian side and in the view of the history of Celtic studies worldwide. We are aiming here to connect facts of his biography with his academic career in the field of Celtic studies and because of the specific aims and limits of the present conference we are not going to touch on his role as a scholar of Romance literatures and as a Shakespearean scholar. Alexander Smirnov [27.8(8.9).1883 – 16.9.1962] can be considered the first professional Celtic scholar in Russia. He was a prominent medievalist and philologist with a range of interests from early Irish and Welsh literature to Shakespearean studies. The paper is devoted to some little known facts from Smirnov’s biography especially to the early years of his academic career in Russia, France and Ireland. His earlier publications on Celtic literatures and ideas expressed therein will be brought to light and examined. Smirnov should be recognised as a ‘founding father’ of a school of Russian Celtic studies. His ideas and influence are still alive in the works of subsequent Russian scholars of Celtic.

Abstract:
Tese de Doutoramento na área de Ciências da Literatura, ramo da Literatura Medieval
Roger Sherman Loomis (1887- 1966) é um estudioso incontornável quando se estuda literatura medieval. Ele proclama a presença da mitologia céltica na literatura medieval e oferece-nos o seu trabalho detalhado no campo do romance arturiano: personagens, episódios, locais, motivos. Loomis defende que o material usado pelos conteurs, primeiro, e pelos escritores, depois, é de origem irlandesa e desenvolvimento galês. Para o provar, ele segue um método que tem cinco passos essenciais: isolar os vários elementos, investigar paralelos, encontrar o original, procurar paralelos na mitologia céltica ou possíveis sobrevivências na tradição bretã, e, finalmente, estudar o caminho que o elemento seguiu e todas as suas possíveis relações com todas as outras versões. O seu método regressivo, arqueológico, é substituído mais tarde por um método progressivo, onde ele procura semelhanças e desenvolvimentos de um motivo, por exemplo, num e noutros romances. O estudioso americano saído das correntes filosóficas e filológicas do século XIX, considera que os mitos e as narrativas orais são a pré-história do romance, logo, as narrativas tradicionais são mais que meras transcrições. Ele apresenta-nos um novo conceito que vai atrair para o seu núcleo o mito e o folclore; esse conceito é tradição. Em suma, percebemos que o que Roger Loomis diz é que o manuscrito tem vários níveis de significados que correspondem a diferentes níveis de mouvance de uma narrativa oral; é por isso que podemos falar de uma pré- história da narrativa, anterior à sua forma manuscrita.
Roger Sherman Loomis (1887- 1966) est un studieux qu’on ne peut pas manquer quand on étudie la littérature médiévale. Il proclame la présence de la mythologie celtique dans la littérature médiévale et il nous offert son travail détaillé sur le champ du roman arthurien: personnages, episodes, places, motifs. Loomis défend que le materiel utlisé par les conteurs, premièrement, et par les écrivains, après, c’est d’origine irlandaise et de développement gallois. Pour le prouver, il suit une méthode de cinq pas essentials: isoler les plusieurs éléments, investiguer les parallèles, trouver l’original, chercher des parallèles dans la mythologie celtique ou des possibles survivances dans la tradition bretonne, et, finalement, étudier le chemin que l’élément a suivi et tous ses possibles rapports avec toutes les outres versions. Sa méthode regressive, archéologique, est remplacée plus tard par une méthode progressive, où il cherche des ressemblances et des développements d’un motif, par exemple, dans un et plusieurs romans. Le studieux américain, qui sort des théories philosophiques et philologiques du XIXe siècle, croit que les mythes et les narratives orales sont la pré-histoire du roman, alors, les narratives traditionnelles sont beaucoup plus que de simples transcriptions. Il nous prèsente un nouveau concept, lequel attire pour son centre le mythe et le folklore; ce concept est tradition. En conclusion, on voit que Roger Loomis dit que le manuscrit a de plusieurs niveaux de significations, lesquels correspondent à de différents niveaux de mouvance d’une narrative orale; voilà pourquoi on peut parler sur une pré-histoire de la narrative, antérieure à sa forme manuscrite.
Roger Sherman Loomis (1887- 1966) is a scholar we can’t miss when studying medieval literature. He proclaims the presence of Celtic mythology on medieval literature, and he offers us his detailed work, studying the Arthurian romance on all its parts: characters, episodes, places, motives. Loomis defends that the material used by the conteurs, first, and by the writers, then, is of Irish origin and Welsh development. To prove it, he follows a method that has five essential steps: isolating the various elements, investigating the parallels, finding the original, looking for parallels in the Celtic mythology or possible survivals in the Breton tradition, and, finally, studying the path the element followed and all the possible relations of it with all the other versions. This regressive, archeological method, is latter replaced by a progressive one, in which he looks for resemblances and developments of a motive in and between romances. The American scholar, coming out from the philosophical and philological theories of the XIXth century, considers that myths and oral narratives are the prehistory of romance, so that traditional narratives are more than just transcriptions. He presents us a new concept that is going to attract to its core myth and folklore; that concept is tradition. So, we understand that what Loomis means is that the manuscript has different leaves of meaning that correspond to different states of mouvance of an oral narrative, that’s why we can talk about a pre-history of the narrative, previous to its manuscript form.

Abstract:
Abstract Chapter 4 focuses on three romances set in marcher contexts. The romance of Fouke le Fitz Waryn, set initially in Shropshire, depicts the disinheritance of Fouke III de Waryn (d. 1258) and his subsequent adventures during exile on the continent and in Wales, where he is assisted by his childhood companion Llywelyn ab Iorwerth. 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. Whereas previous analyses have considered these romances in the context of other ‘ancestral romances’ or family romances from Anglo-Norman England, this chapter shows that these texts are primarily occupied by marcher concerns, such as land rights, independence, and the need for jurisdictional limits on the English Crown. Placing these texts in a marcher context, rather than a strictly English context, allows a more focused articulation of their interests to emerge. In particular, marcher literature is interested in the Welsh past, the strain of British history and prophecy indebted to Geoffrey of Monmouth, the idea of women as key players in lines of succession of lordships (especially in cases where there is no living male heir), and defensive ownership of and claim to land in Wales and the Marches.

Abstract:
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 aligned the ethnic histories of Wales (or Britain) and Ireland with world events. The legacy of Rome was another source of English identity which worked to exclude the early British people and their descendants, the Welsh. Rome was also an important point of reference for the Welsh and Irish, who established their claim to ancient lineage through literary references to Britain under the Romans and through adaptations of Latin epic. The ambiguity of Troy, represented by Aeneas as a figure of both heroic endeavour and treacherous betrayal, is addressed in different ways by English, Welsh, and Irish writers. The chapter ends with a discussion of the Trojan prefaces in Sir Gawain and the Green Knight and Chaucer’s House of Fame, suggesting that these prefaces are motivated comments on the questionable historical construction of English identity.

Abstract:
The WWI recruitment drive in Wales was extraordinarily successful. One strand in the propaganda that encouraged young Welsh men to enlist was the example of Caractacus, the ancient British leader who according to Tacitus had fought against the ancient Romans in Wales and, after capture, had delivered a defiant speech to the Emperor Claudius. 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. The trend was encouraged by the identification of Lloyd George with the ancient warrior, especially after his ‘People’s Budget’ had won the fervent support of the working classes. Once war was declared, the Caractacus performances in Wales became transparently connected with recruitment, morale, and fund-raising for the war effort. Small Welsh children across the class spectrum were still performing such plays while their elder brothers were dying in the trenches of France.

Abstract:
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 assesses the influence of Thomas’s All Things Betray Thee (1949) on Williams’ own historical novel trilogy, People of the Black Mountains (1989–90). It argues that Williams took from his mid-century writers a conception of politics that now resonates with contemporary attempts to revitalize activist theory and revive the historical novel as a social movement genre.
