Book excerpt: "Mae arnaf flys ysgrifennu hanes fy mywyd fy hun, nid i eraill, ond i mi fy hun; ac yn sicr nid i'w argraffu, ond yn hytrach fel math o hunan-gymundeb." Er protestiadau Rhys Lewis mae ei hunangofiant ar gael dros ganrif ers ei chyhoeddi. Disgrifia Rhys Lewis ei fywyd adref gyda'i fam a'i frawd Bob, yn yr ysgol dan law llym Robyn y Sowldiwr, fel prentis yn siop Abel Hughes ac fel myfyriwr yng Ngholeg y Bala cyn cael ei benodi'n Weinidog Capel Bethel. Mae'r penodau yng nghwmni Wil Bryan a Thomas Bartley yn hwyliog a doniol ond mae tristwch mawr yng nghefndir teulu'r Lewisiaid - perthynas Robert a Mary, damwain erchyll Bob yn y pwll glo a salwch Rhys ar ôl dychwelyd i Bethel. Roedd Daniel Owen, 1836-1895, yn deiliwr yn Yr Wyddgrug ac yn disgrifio'i gymdeithas ar ddiwedd y 19eg Ganrif.

Download or read book The Celts 2 volumes written by John T. Koch and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2012-08-08 with total page 1358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This succinct, accessible two-volume set covers all aspects of Celtic historical life, from prehistory to the present day. The study of Celtic history has a wide international appeal, but unfortunately many of the available books on the subject are out-of-date, narrowly specialized, or contain incorrect information. Online information on the Celts is similarly unreliable. This two-volume set provides a well-written, up-to-date, and densely informative reference on Celtic history that is ideal for high school or college-aged students as well as general readers. The Celts: History, Life, and Culture uses a cross-disciplinary approach to explore all facets of this ancient society. The book introduces the archaeology, art history, folklore, history, linguistics, literature, music, and mythology of the Celts and examines the global influence of their legacy. Written entirely by acknowledged experts, the content is accessible without being simplistic. Unlike other texts in the field, The Celts: History, Life, and Culture celebrates all of the cultures associated with Celtic languages at all periods, providing for a richer and more comprehensive examination of the topic.
