Book excerpt: Excerpt from Three Essays, on the Subjects Proposed by the Cambrian Society in Dyfed: Which Gained the Respective Prizes, at the Eisteddfod, Held at Caermarthen, in September, 1823 Among the nations, distinguished of old by any remarkable pro. Ficiency in Navigation, the tnicians seem to deserve the first place; and for which reason the credit of having invented the art, has been ascribed to them, as we have seen, by some ancient his torians. It is probable enough, however, that the spirit of com mercial enterprise, by which they were actuated, occasioned them to do much towards its improvement. And the Carthaginians, a Phcenician Colony, are known not only to have rivalled, but to have even surpassed, the fame of their founders in this respect. It would be easy to deduce the history of the art, through the various nations who have been most celebrated for cultivating it, from the time of the Carthaginians to the present, if it were an inquiry immediately connected with the particular subject of this Essay. But it must be apparent. That it would far exceed the true limits of this investigation to enter into such a detail.

Download or read book Print and the Celtic Languages written by Niall Ó Ciosáin and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-12-22 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a study of the print cultures of the four principal Celtic languages — Irish, Welsh, Gaelic and Breton — in the crucial period between 1700 and 1900. Over the past four centuries, the Celtic languages of northwest Europe have followed contrasting paths of maintenance and decline. This was despite their common lack of official recognition and use, and their common distance from the centres of political power. This volume analyses publishing, circulation and reading in the four languages, particularly at a popular level, showing the different levels of overall activity as well as the distinctions in the types of printed texts between regions. The approach is a broad one, considering all printed books down to very small cheap formats. It explores the interactions between the different regions and the continuation of print culture within diasporic communities. This volume will appeal to book historians, to scholars of the four languages and their literature, and to students of Celtic studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume approaches the fascinating figure of Iolo Morganwg – stonemason, poet and literary forger – from three distinct but interrelated angles. They all take as their starting point Iolo Morganwg’s ‘marginality’ within mainstream literary society both in London and in Wales and demonstrate the strategies that he used to overcome the frustrations of his situation. Iolo’s notoriety as a literary forger provides the context for the first discussion in the volume, which considers his efforts to pass on his own work as that of famous Welsh writers of the past. This chapter looks at how important the editorial apparatus with which Iolo surrounded his forgeries was to his attempt to ensure their satisfactory reception. Secondly, two collections of printed books owned by Iolo and containing marginal commentary in his hand are explored. The discussion here demonstrates Iolo’s keen interest in the forging of a path for the Welsh language within the developing public domain of the regional eisteddfodau and also his complex personal relations with some of the more successful authors of his day. Iolo’s vulnerability and marginality within the context of a Welsh public sphere are both brought to the fore in this chapter. Finally, the volume turns to the marginalia left by Iolo on letters within his collection of correspondence, showing his extraordinary creativity and bringing to attention for the first time some of his unpublished work in the fields of Welsh and English poetry and on matters relating to the Welsh language.
