Résumé :
The article examines historical novels by the early 21 st century British writers where the authors turn to images of “internal” Others: Welsh, Irish and Scots. For each of these regions, we can identify topics that are associated specifically with them. Thus, the Welsh component is connected, first of all, with Celtic culture and social issues. Ireland is associated with religious theme, and Scotland is associated with a historical component. Edward Rutherfurd’s dilogy on Ireland “Dublin: Foundation” (2004) and “Ireland Awakening” (2006), presents the history of the Christianity development in Ireland. The writer emphasizes the continuity of paganism and Christianity. The following series of works analyzed in this article is dedicated to one of the most significant historical figures in Scotland, Robert the Bruce. The novels “Insurrection” (2010), “Renegade” (2012) and “Kingdom” (2014) examine the period of Scottish identity formation exemplified by King Robert and his opposition to the English monarchy. In Ken Follett’s trilogy “Century”, which includes “Fall of Giants” (2010), “Winter of the World” (2012) and “Edge of Eternity” (2014), we can note the socio-political issues associated, first of all, with the Welsh characters. At the same time, the idea common to all these works is the Celtic peoples’ community and their opposition to the English.

This article compares and contrasts the 1580 texts A briefe discours contayning certayne reasons why Catholiques refuse to goe to Church by Robert Persons, and Gwssanaeth y Gwŷr Newydd by Robert Gwyn. Both books deal with church papism, and were written whilst the authors were in Rome together. Despite the simi-larity of theme, and the fact that the two most likely consulted each other about the work, many significant differences remain between the two texts. This article seeks to discuss these differences, and to assess what conclusions can be inferred from them as to the relative conditions of English and Welsh Catholicism, and the effect that this had on the authors’ work.

Résumé :
Born in a family of mixed linguistic heritage in a industrial village in north-east Wales, Grahame Davies found himself – thanks to a crucial meeting with a charismatic teacher – learning his poetic craft in the Welsh-speaking tradition. While working as a journalist in newspapers and later in broadcasting, he became one of his country’s most prominent poets and authors, later developing an international reputation as a librettist for classical composers. In this piece he reflects on the transmission mechanisms of individual and communal creativity, the varying status of poets in Welsh and English-language culture, the challenges and opportunities of working in joint artistic and professional enterprises, and on the delicate, but often hugely rewarding, process of working with audiences and with those who commission artistic works.

Résumé :
Purpose Cybercrime is the greatest threat facing law enforcement agencies in England and Wales. Although these crimes are transnational by nature, the burden of response has been placed on line officers. Not all officers, however, believe they are capable of responding to calls involving cybercrime. The current study, using latent class analysis (LCA) on a large sample of English and Welsh officers, finds two types of officers: those prepared (39 percent) and those unprepared (61 percent). Using logistic regression to predict who falls into either classification, the authors find that training and age are the best predictors of latent membership. Implications for policy and future research are discussed. The paper aims to discuss these issues. Design/methodology/approach In this study, the authors used LCA to determine the number and character of unobserved categories of officers in how they deal with cybercrime. Findings The LCA indicated there are two distinct categories of police in the English and Welsh constabulary: those prepared (39 percent) and those unprepared (61 percent). Training and age were the two key determinants of this classification. Research limitations/implications LCA is an exploratory analysis technique that requires additional validation to confirm the findings of any one study. Practical implications The salience of training in helping officers feel prepared to deal with cybercrime cases as well as victims was demonstrated. A full 60 percent of the officers in this study fell in the “unprepared” category, which continues to highlight the limitations of local police to handle cybercrime cases; nevertheless, almost 40 percent of officer could be considered ready when responding to cybercrimes. Social implications As the harm cybercrime brings to our financial and social well-being, law enforcement agencies will be required to improve their response capabilities. Most current cybercrime responses address technical issues related to online fraud and abuse, but officers often perceive the problem as outside their legal and geographic jurisdiction. Knowing how officers perceive cybercrime as well as their own capabilities will allow us to begin changing enforcement policies, training capacity and individual response efficacy. Originality/value This study involved a sample of English and Welsh constables and sergeants to classify their cybercrime readiness. The analysis and particular data are unique to the study of cybercrime.

The aim of this paper is to analyse the centre of gravity (COG) of release bursts in Welsh plosives in order to assess their importance in distinguishing between /p, t, k/ (here termed fortis) and /b, d, g/ (here termed lenis). The COG of a release burst appears to be particularly interesting as (i) it has not yet been studied extensively in the phonetic scientific literature on Welsh plosives (see for instance Ball, Ball and Williams, Jones, Morris and Hejná), and (ii) using the COG variable to distinguish between stops is not very common, as it is normally used to differentiate between places of articulation in fricatives. To achieve the aforementioned goals, the authors, inspired by a study of American English plosives conducted by Chodroff and Wilson, measured the COG of bursts in word-initial /p, b, t, d, k, g/.

Résumé :
Abstract: The UK Supreme court recently rendered two important decisions on penalty clauses: Cavendish v. Makdessi and ParkingEye v. Beavis. The penalty clause is a controversial legal concept in Europe because it can result in high and unreasonable payment obligations. Most European legal systems agree that some form of protection against unreasonable penalty clauses is needed, but differ in the way penalty clauses are restricted. The most extreme approach is followed by English law, where a distinction is made between invalid penalty clauses and valid liquidated damages clauses. The new UK Supreme Court cases introduce new elements in English law in this respect. In this issue, the two decisions are discussed from a comparative perspective by a number of authors from different legal systems (English & Welsh, Belgian, German, Dutch, French, Italian, Swedish and Polish law).

Résumé :
The new book on the toponymy of Flintshire is notable in several respects, including the scope of the study that goes well beyond the geographical borders of this county. This review addresses the virtues and the shortcomings of the publication. Two academic monographs, several books for a wider audience, and a number of articles had already been devoted to Flintshire’s geographical names. A new study is considered against this background and includes an analysis of the book, its features, and the evaluation of the authors’ contribution to the study of the toponymy of North East Wales. The book covers 801 geographical names of 753 places in Flintshire (Welsh Sir y Fflint) before the administrative reform of 1994. Given that 62% of the toponyms under study (including those that disappeared from modern maps) are Welsh, the review focuses on the analysis of this set of data, with attention to chronological layers and the etymologies of some geographical names, as well as their translation into English. The author points out that the English layer of Flintshire’s toponymy deserves a more detailed coverage. The layout of the data in this work makes it possible to express some considerations regarding the general trends observed in the toponymic studies of Wales.

Résumé :
Almost the whole of the British coal industry has closed since the early 1980s. The authors assess the extent to which the areas once dependent on coalmining have adapted to this job loss. A ‘labour-market accounting’ approach is employed to document the principal changes in employment, unemployment, commuting, and activity rates among men in the English and Welsh coalfields over the period to 2004, building on previous similar research covering the period 1981–91. The authors point to a strong recovery of employment among men in these areas, though this is not yet on a scale to offset all the coal job losses and there is important variation between areas. There is also evidence of extensive and continuing ‘hidden unemployment’.

Résumé :
The present work explores the feeling of love in linguistic world pictures of different ethnic groups that comprise a single nation. The authors attempted to describe this feeling as a linguacultural space and define its aspects, both universal and nationally specific. The methodology of the research encompassed a comparative method, continuous sampling method, method of structural and semantic analysis and method of contextual analysis. The paper offers the analysis of paroemiological units in English, Welsh, Scottish Gaelic and Scots languages. Qualitative and quantitative characteristics of representation of the concept of Love were defined. Semantic structure of this word was revealed. There were described nationally specific features of representation of “man’s” matter when structuring Love within the framework of linguistic culture in the linguistic world picture. As the result of the study, a generalized scheme of the linguacultural space of Love is revealed at the level of a nation’s linguistic picture of the world, and the idioethnic one at the level of an individual ethnic group. Certain standards and stereotypes contained in this linguacultural space are distinguished as well.

Evans, Gareth Ian. « Welsh writing in English : case studies in cultural interaction ». Thesis, Swansea University, 2012. https://cronfa.swan.ac.uk/Record/cronfa42616.

Texte intégral
Résumé :
Welsh Writing in English: Case Studies in Cultural Interaction This thesis explores and analyses instances of cultural interaction in the English-language literature of Wales. It explores the encounters that Anglophone Welsh writers have had with non-European territories and cultures, such as the complex textual record of Alun Lewis's experience of 1940s India, Welsh writers' experiences of Australia since the 1960s and Robert Minhinnick's writing about Brazil in the 1990s. It also explores the images and impressions of Llanybri inscribed in the poetry of the Argentine-born modernist poet Lynette Roberts. Using a broad range of theories from the fields of postcolonial studies, travel writing studies and interpretive anthropology, it explores issues such as the construction of cultural difference, the identity politics of cultural assimilation, and the reproduction and subversion of colonial tropes and stereotypes. By examining the diverse ways in which the Welsh have written about their experience of a range of cultures and environments throughout the twentieth century the thesis attempts to uncover hitherto undiscovered territory within the study of Welsh Writing in English.

Résumé :
Since devolution there has been a wealth of stimulating and exciting literary works by Welsh and Scottish women writers, produced as the boundaries of nationality were being dismantled and ideas of nationhood transformed. This comparative study brings together, for the first time, Scottish and Welsh women writers’ literary responses to these historic political and cultural developments. Chapter one situates the thesis in a historical context and discusses some of the connections between Wales and Scotland in terms of their relationship with ‘Britain’ and England. Chapter two focuses on the theoretical context and argues that postcolonial and feminist theories are the most appropriate frameworks in which to understand both Welsh and Scottish women’s writing in English, and their preoccupations with gendered inequalities and language during the pre- and post-devolutionary period. The third chapter examines Welsh and Scottish women’s writing from the first failed referendum (1979) to the second successful one (1997) to provide a sense of progression towards devolution. Since the process of devolution began there has been an important repositioning of Scottish and Welsh people’s perception of their culture and their place within it; the subsequent chapters – four, five, six and seven – analyse a diverse body of work from the symbolic transference of powers in 1999 to 2008. The writers discussed range from established authors such as Stevie Davies to first-time novelists such as Leela Soma. Through close comparative readings focusing on a range of issues such as marginalised identities and the politics of home and belonging, these chapters uncover and assess Welsh and Scottish women writers’ shared literary assertions, strategies and concerns as well as local and national differences. The conclusions drawn from this thesis suggest that, as a consequence of a history of sustained internal and external marginalization, post-devolution Welsh and Scottish women’s writing share important similarities regarding the politics of representation. The authors discussed in this study are resisting writers who textually illustrate the necessity of constantly rewriting national narratives and in so doing enable their audience to read the two nations and their peoples in fresh, innovative and divergent ways.

Parker, Louise Jane. « Shadows, struggles and poetic guilt : Glyn Jones, his literary doubles and the Welsh-language tradition ». Thesis, Swansea University, 2011. https://cronfa.swan.ac.uk/Record/cronfa42983.

Texte intégral
Résumé :
An 'Anglo Welsh' writer who emerged in the 1930s to considerable acclaim in Wales and London, Glyn Jones was a contemporary and friend of Dylan Thomas. An innovative Welsh Modernist, he found the genres of poetry and the short story best suited to the exhibition of his concise, imagist and often grotesque experimentalism. Unlike Thomas, he wrote two novels, was a 'gentle' satirist of Welsh culture, and was deeply embroiled in the 'post-colonial' cultural conflicts of his nation. Jones struggled to find expression between two languages and worked insistently (often antagonistically) in the Welsh literary scene throughout its most controversial century, when it fought to save the Welsh language and resolve its conflicting cultural factions into a consolidated national identity. Jones was, to adopt the rubric of Bhabha, stranded in the cultural margins at the intersection of the English and Welsh languages, and this thesis situates itself accordingly. The first of six chapters examines the ways in which the Welshlanguage culture of Wales engaged Glyn Jones, and explores how a liminal voice can establish its cultural validity via rewriting autobiography into a 'mythical' history. The second chapter adopts Harold Bloom, the concept of intertext and psychological notions of the 'other', to address Jones's conflicted relationship with Dylan Thomas. The third attempts to analyse his twentieth-century dialogue with Dafydd ap Gwilym as he seeks affirmation from his fourteenth-century double. The fourth continues this 'othering' of Welsh ancients and considers how Wales is refracted in some of his work through the literary excavation of Llywarch Hen, tenth-century defender of his princedom, but willing forfeiter of his sons. The fifth chapter considers how Jones inherited but re-invented the role of the cyfarwydd (storyteller), and the sixth explores how Hen Benillion (Welsh folk poetry) fostered his peculiarly Welsh Modernism.

Résumé :
AbstractThis paper presents and analyses the approach of the Welsh recusant author and translator Robert Gwyn (c.1545–c.1600) to the translation of quotations from the Bible and the Church Fathers as it is reflected in both his paratextual comments on translating and in regularities of his translational practice. Gwyn locates his literary work in the larger context of Counter-Reformation activities in Wales for an “unlearned” audience and therefore forcefully argues for the primacy of comprehensibility over strict adherence to the words of the source text. A brief detour for the purpose of contextualization looks at the paratexts of other contemporaneous Catholic and Protestant Welsh translators and at their aims in relation to their projected audiences. Since English loanwords were a feature of spoken Welsh and their use in translations was explicitly vindicated by Gwyn, lexical choices in a range of his versions of Biblical verses are compared with the translation of the same verses in the Protestant Welsh translations of the New Testament dating between 1567 and 1588.

AbstractThe voluntary and community sector (VCS) is a key player in the support of prisoners and ex-prisoners in the English and Welsh criminal justice system. Organisational learning and innovation is urgently required in this sector to adapt to the current political and economic environment. The chapter describes exploratory efforts to introduce participatory methods drawn from Change Laboratory Methods and Clinics of Activity within a local VCS organisation that would help (re)build dialogue between stakeholders with the aim of promoting organisational learning and innovation. The intervention comprised an ethnographic phase of observing the staff, interviews with 19 key stakeholders, and a final developmental workshop with the staff. The analysis of these data by the researcher (first author) provided insight into the experience of mentors working in the voluntary sector as well as providing a trigger for dialogue in a subsequent workshop that used these data to establish dialogue between staff. These served as dialogical artefacts, introducing micro-dramas in the form of selected user stories. These dialogical artefacts triggered diverse reactions and analyses by the various participants, highlighting different elements than those anticipated by the researcher. We discuss the different readings of our research data by the researcher and staff members, presenting these two contrasting perspectives, and the implications this has for workplace development methods.

Abstract ‘Imagining Wales from England’ addresses the literary, artistic, and dramatic works which emerged from the functioning of English Welsh duality in the first half of the twentieth century. It explores the influence of Welsh painter, Augustus John, addressing the network of English Welsh artists who congregated around John in London around the time of the First World War, as well as assessing his children’s relationship with their Welsh heritage. It investigates how some English writers living within diasporic communities, on the borderlands with Wales, or with homes in Wales, creatively made use of imagined interconnections, providing a case study of the author Richard Hughes and analysing the life writing and literary output of authors such as John Owen and Margiad Evans. It highlights the willingness of Welsh national institutions to promote a fluid conception of Welshness which accommodates English artists of Welsh extraction.

Résumé :
This chapter explores what the multiple worlds inhabited by the Anglican clergyman Thomas Price (Carnhuanawc; 1787–1848) reveal about the variety of Welsh history writing, in both Welsh and English, between c.1820 and his death in 1848. The first part assesses the contexts in which this writing was produced, especially developments in print culture and the establishment of new ‘Cambrian societies’ in Wales dedicated to the promotion of the Welsh language and culture, especially through holding eisteddfodau. The second part examines a range of works by authors other than Price. These include J. H. Parry’s collection of biographies, The Cambrian Plutarch, and John Jones’s acerbic The History of Wales, both published in 1824, and a history of Anglesey by the antiquary Angharad Llwyd (1833). The third part assesses the significance of Price’s Hanes Cymru (‘History of Wales’), published in instalments 1836–42. Although conventionally devoting the bulk of his coverage to the origins of the Welsh and their history down to the death of Llywelyn ap Gruffudd in 1282, Price wrote a longer history of Wales than his predecessors mainly by deploying a wider range both of Welsh-language chronicles and of Welsh poetry and other literary texts than they had done. His work was also notable for its patriotic tone, as Price praised the exceptional achievements of the Welsh, especially their preservation of the Welsh language, and endowed them with European significance by asserting that Wales was the source of European chivalry.

Résumé :
Abstract A range of religious literature—in both manuscript and print—was composed, transmitted, and consumed in Welsh, Scottish Gaelic, and Irish in the period between the Battle of Culloden and Catholic emancipation. This chapter is concerned with that religious literature and the broader culture(s) which sustained it. Each of these three languages was marginalized, to varying degrees, within a consolidating and centralizing Anglophone British State, so too does the extent and nature of Catholic literary production vary greatly from language to language. They can, nonetheless, be usefully examined together. Common threads include the important early role of Continental colleges in the education of priests and the cultivation of literature, the popularity of vernacular translations from English Catholic authors, and comparable or overlapping networks of printers and patrons. Of the three languages examined, the most voluminous and varied Catholic literary output is to be found in Irish while the evidence for Welsh is scant is contrast. Notably in this regard, and in contrast with Irish, the volume of printed Catholic literary output in both Scottish Gaelic and Welsh is a very small proportion of the volume of printing in those languages more generally.

Résumé :
This chapter discusses writing on Welsh history in the later eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. It assesses the significance of four main strands in particular. The first is the Romantic reinvention of the Welsh past by Edward Williams (1747–1826), better known by his bardic name Iolo Morganwg, that marked a further development of antiquarian approaches that portrayed the Welsh as heirs to an ancient civilization, transmitted through a native learned tradition termed bardism that Iolo ultimately derived from the Druids, uniquely accessible through texts in Welsh. The second strand is the new genre of historically informed topographical writing, including Thomas Pennant’s Tour in Wales (1778–83) and the first Welsh county histories. The third is The History of Wales (1786) by the Revd William Warrington, an English author who, though conventionally ending his narrative at the Edwardian conquest, broke new ground in the writing of Welsh history in his conception and approach, notably by portraying the history of medieval Wales as a struggle for liberty. Lastly, the chapter appraises another new genre, namely Nonconformist histories, written in both Welsh and English, that emphasized the making of a modern Welsh people defined by its adherence to Puritanism and Dissent.

Résumé :
Abstract This chapter focuses on the reimagining of British historical memory by the Mortimers of Wigmore in the late fourteenth century. At this time, Roger Mortimer, 4th earl of March, became the presumptive heir to Richard II, prompting chroniclers at Wigmore Abbey to draw together a compilation of historical texts and genealogies, several of which are edited by the author for the first time. These genealogies emphasized his right to rule in an elaborate presentation of hybrid English and Welsh ancestry. Using Welsh textual sources, genealogists traced his Welsh and English ancestry back to the legendary founders of Britain, doubling his claim to the throne. This creative refashioning of the past on the part of family chroniclers illustrates the leverage of Welsh familial connections by marcher baronial families. Their efforts positioned Roger Mortimer as uniquely qualified to unite the kingdoms of Britain and offered an important model for Edward IV’s and Henry Tudor’s later uses of Welsh ancestry to support their own royal claims.

Résumé :
This chapter constitutes the first exploration of Woolf’s influence on Welsh author Emyr Humphreys, widely regarded as one of the most prolific and accomplished Welsh novelists writing in English in the twentieth century. The chapter focusses on Woolf’s influence on one of his most significant early novels, A Toy Epic (1958. The chapter suggests that without the influence of Woolf’s fiction, especially her novel The Waves (1931), Humphreys’s novel as we know it would not have been written. Pointing out that both novels are driven by the individual consciousnesses of a small group of characters and that Humphreys employs the same words as Woolf in her text to indicate a change in speaker, the chapter argues that Woolf’s modernist work provided Humphreys with solutions to the narrative problems with which he was grappling in the 1940s.

Résumé :
Abstract ‘Welshness as Masquerade’ addresses the notion of masquerade, or the use of Welshness to mask Englishness, with the life story of the author Richard Llewellyn providing the primary case study. It also engages with other examples of elective Welshness: Owen Rhoscomyl, Naomi Royde-Smith, and William Emrys Williams, who, at various moments, masked their English roots, by implying that they were born in Wales. Rather than dismissing these cultural figures as imposters, this chapter explores the intersections between their assertions of Welsh identity and understandings of the authentic self. These case studies serve to underline the historical tensions between understandings of Welshness as a ‘territorialised assumption of identity’ and as a pluralist diasporic identity upon which claims of authenticity and belonging could be made. Finally, this chapter argues that Llewellyn was embraced as a cultural representative of transnational Welshness within a wider British imperial nation during the Second World War.

Résumé :
Abstract Chapter 2 focuses on the work of Derrick Sington, a hitherto under-discussed writer who is significant not least because his experiences at Belsen fuelled his concern with wider issues of the treatment of prisoners and the appropriateness (or, in his view, inappropriateness) of the death penalty. The 1957 book The Offenders: Society and Atrocious Crime, co-authored with journalist Giles Playfair, included a chapter by Sington arguing that Irma Grese, condemned to death at the Belsen Trial for her actions at Belsen and Auschwitz, should not have been hanged, and suggesting that social pressures could have affected her behaviour. The Offenders was published just as the 1957 Homicide Act introduced the defence of diminished responsibility into English and Welsh law, a measure that from Sington’s abolitionist perspective did not go far enough. In the chapter on Grese, Sington also revisited his earlier account of Belsen and attempted to contextualize his first, visceral response to what he saw there. Sington’s later writing therefore opens up the question of how the aftermath of the war crimes trials intersected with debates in Britain about the potential abolition of capital punishment and judicial and penal reform more generally, as well as reframing both Sington’s testimony at the Belsen Trial and his book Belsen Uncovered (1946).
