This book was released on 2018-02-08 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Handbook for Travellers in South Wales, and Its Borders, Including the River Wye: With a Travelling Map During the last twenty years. The general features of South Wales have undergone great changes in social, commercial, and even geographical points of view. The enormous development of mining enterprise and the opening of new railways have peopled districts which were formerly uninhabited. New towns have arisen, new harbours have been formed; and the fair counties of South Wales, particularly those of Gwent and Morganwg, have woke up to a new phase of existence. The Editor has brought the information in this Handbook up to the present day, in the hope that it will really guide the traveller to what is most worth seeing. Having lived the greater portion of his life in the district that he has endeavoured to delineate, he believes that it may be depended upon. But if any inaccuracies or misstatements should be met with (and both will occasionally creep in), he will be obliged if his readers will kindly write to him on the subject, in order that a speedy correction may follow, to the care of Mr. Murray, Albemarle Street.

Download or read book The Medieval March of Wales written by Max Lieberman and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-01-28 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the making of the March of Wales and the crucial role its lords played in the politics of medieval Britain between the Norman conquest of England of 1066 and the English conquest of Wales in 1283. Max Lieberman argues that the Welsh borders of Shropshire, which were first, from c.1165, referred to as Marchia Wallie, provide a paradigm for the creation of the March. He reassesses the role of William the Conqueror's tenurial settlement in the making of the March and sheds new light on the ways in which seigneurial administrations worked in a cross-cultural context. Finally, he explains why, from c.1300, the March of Wales included the conquest territories in south Wales as well as the highly autonomous border lordships. This book makes a significant and original contribution to frontier studies, investigating both the creation and the changing perception of a medieval borderland.

Download or read book Music in Welsh Culture Before 1650 written by Sally Harper and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 517 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music in Wales has long been a neglected area. Scholars have been deterred both by the need for a knowledge of the Welsh language, and by the fact that an oral tradition in Wales persisted far later than in other parts of Britain, resulting in a limited number of sources with conventional notation. Sally Harper provides the first serious study of Welsh music before 1650 and draws on a wide range of sources in Welsh, Latin and English to illuminate early musical practice. This book challenges and refutes two widely held assumptions - that music in Wales before 1650 is impoverished and elusive, and that the extant sources are too obscure and fragmentary to warrant serious study. Harper demonstrates that there is a far wider body of source material than is generally realized, comprising liturgical manuscripts, archival materials, chronicles and retrospective histories, inventories of pieces and players, vernacular poetry and treatises. This book examines three principal areas: the unique tradition of cerdd dant (literally 'the music of the string') for harp and crwth; the Latin liturgy in Wales and its embellishment, and 'Anglicised' sacred and secular materials from c.1580, which show Welsh music mirroring English practice. Taken together, the primary material presented in this book bears witness to a flourishing and distinctive musical tradition of considerable cultural significance, aspects of which have an important impact on wider musical practice beyond Wales.
