Book Description
Eighteenth-Century Writing from Wales examines Welsh writing in English in the context of recent critical debates concerning the rise of cultural nationalism and the "invention" of Great Britain as a nation in the eighteenth century. This volume represents the first study of Welsh literature in English alongside this literary negotiation of Britishness, and the group of texts discussed provides an important contribution to the ways in which Anglophone literature from and about Wales imagined the nation and its culture in a range of genres including poetry, fiction, and religious writing.

Book Description
Between Wales and England is an exploration of eighteenth-century anglophone Welsh writing by authors for whom English-language literature was mostly a secondary concern. In its process, the work interrogates these authors’ views on the newly-emerging sense of ‘Britishness’, finding them in many cases to be more nuanced and less resistant than has generally been considered. It looks primarily at the English-language works of Lewis Morris, Evan Evans, and Edward Williams (Iolo Morganwg) in the context of both their Welsh- and English-language influences and time spent travelling between the two countries, considering how these authors responded to and reimagined the new national identity through their poetry and prose.
