Manuscripts in the National Library of Wales (Llyfrgell Genedlaethol Cymru), Aberystwyth
Author: National Library of WalesPublisher: Boydell & Brewer Ltd
ISBN: 9780859915496
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 134
Book Description
'The National Library of Wales was founded to preserve the material of the literary culture and history of Wales, hence the number of medieval English language manuscripts is relatively small, and the manuscript context for some English texts is one in which Welsh is the main language. The best known of the Middle English manuscripts in the NLW are Brogyntyn II.1 (Porkington 10) and the Hengwrt manuscript for Chaucer's 'Canterbury Tales'; however, the collection has been little explored for its Middle English holdings, and of the manuscripts listed here fewer than half are included in the 'Index of Printed Middle English Prose'. They contain a wealth of materials, most notably in historical writings, scientific texts, and prophecies; among the texts not previously recorded are the 'Davies Chronicle' and a version of the 'Elucidarius'.'

New Geographies of Language
Author: Rhys JonesPublisher: Springer
ISBN: 113742611X
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 383
Book Description
This book develops a novel approach to the study of language, bringing it into dialogue with the latest geographical concepts and concerns and provides a comprehensive account of the geography of Welsh language analysing policy development, language use, ability and shift. The authors examine in particular: the different ways in which languages can be mapped; how geographical insights can be used to develop understandings of language use; the value of assemblage theory as a way of interpreting the social, technical and spatial aspects of language policy development; and the geographies that characterise institutional engagements with languages. This book will set a research agenda for the geographical study of language, developing a conceptual framework that will offer fresh insights to researchers in the fields of Applied Linguistics, Sociolinguistics, Minority Languages, Geolinguistics, and Public Policy.
An English Chronicle, 1377-1461
Author: C. William MarxPublisher: Boydell Press
ISBN: 9780851157931
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 318
Book Description
The narrative covers the periods 1377-1437 and 1440-1461, and includes previously unknown English-language accounts of episodes of the reign of Richard II, such as the Peasants' Revolt. Each continuation is the product of a different political climate, and the introduction explores the narrative and rhetorical structures that lie behind them. As a whole, the edition offers particularly valuable insights into the growth of a highly politicised vernacular historical narrative, and the way in which two medieval compilers sought to represent the history of the late fourteenth and early fifteenth centuries."--Jacket.
