This is a major contribution to the study of medieval Wales by a group of outstanding British historians, writing in honour of one of Wales's most distinguished scholars and the biographer of Prince Llywelyn ap Gruffudd. The essays reflect exciting trends in the study of both Wales and the Middle Ages, including church building, chronicle writing, the comparative history of the law, and valuable reassessments of town life and the implications of the Edwardian conquest of Wales.

"David Lloyd's The Moving of the Water is the first work of fiction to draw from--and recreate--the Welsh American immigrant experience. Anchored in the community of first, second, and third generation Welsh Americans in Utica, New York, during the 1960s, the stories delve into universal concerns: identity, home, religion, language, culture, belonging, personal and national histories, mortality. Unflinching in their portrayal of the traumas and conflicts of fictional Welsh Americans, these stories also embrace multiple communities and diverse experiences in linked, innovative narratives: the criminal underworld, soldiers fighting in World War I and in Vietnam, the poignant struggles of children and adults caught between old and new worlds. A boy in a fairy-tale themed amusement park meets himself as he might be in ten years. A man estranged from his wife and daughter walks into his church at night to commit suicide--and receives a startling revelation. An alcoholic and his great nephew forge an unforeseen intimacy after a chance meeting in a bar. And in the title story, a fiercely independent elderly woman, protecting her proscribed life from the incursions of a neighborhood boy, meditates on suffering and mortality" --

Mae'r llyfr hwn yn cyd-destunoli cenhadaeth Evan Jones i'r Tsalagi (Cherokee), a hynny trwy graffu ar destunau perthnasol mewn tair iaith - y Saesneg, y Gymraeg a'r iaith Dsalagi. Dehonglir hefyd y modd y trafodid brodorion America ar dudalennau gwasg Gymraeg yr Unol Daleithiau. Awgrymir bod y berthynas rhwng y cenhadwr Cymreig hyn a'r genedl frodorol yn stryd ddwyffordd: os oedd y Cymro hwn yn dylanwadu ar y brodorion, roedd diwylliant a bydolwg y Tsalagi yn dylanwadu arno yntau hefyd. Wrth drafod y prosesau hyn, defnyddir y 'feirniadaeth frodorol' a arloesid yn ddiweddar gan ysgolheigion sy'

The colonial presence in early modern Ireland is usually viewed as being thoroughly English, and in places Scottish, with the Welsh hardly featuring at all. This book, based on extensive original research, demonstrates that there was in fact a significant Welsh involvement in Ireland between 1558 and 1641. It explores how the Welsh established themselves as soldiers, government officials and planters in Ireland. It also discusses how the Welsh, although participating in the 'English' colonisation of Ireland, nevertheless remained a distinct community, settling together and maintaining strong kinship and social and economic networks to fellow countrymen, including in Wales. It provides a detailed picture of the Welsh settler communities and their networks, and discusses the nature of Welsh settler identity. Overall, the book demonstrates how an understanding of the role of the Welsh in the shaping of early modern Ireland can offer valuable new perspectives on the histories of both countries and on the making of early modern Britain. Rhys Morgan completed his doctorate in history at Cardiff University.
