A wide range of topics concerning the Celtic people of the extreme southwest of Britain are explored by contributors inside and outside academia. As always, debates about reconstructing the language are included. Other topics include 20th-century Anglo-Cornish poems written by women, copper mining 1795-1830, and ancient traditions and modern sensitivities. The 11 essays are not indexed. Distributed in North America by The David Brown Book Co. Annotation ©2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

The fourteenth volume in this acclaimed paperback series includes articles on Cornish mining history, the Cornish and Breton languages compared, the history and revival of Cornish, the poet Charles Causley, twentieth–century Anglo-Cornish poetry written by women, the novels of Edith Havelock Ellis, the 1913 Cornish china-clay workers’ strike, fiction and Cornish tourism, nationalization in Cornwall, and the controversial Padstow ‘Darkie Days’

Recenzijos

'Cornish Studies is probably the only "county" series that can legitimately claim to represent the past and present of a nation. As such it consistently provides rich material for the understanding of the British past and present as a whole, and of their impact on the wider world.' (Ronald Hutton, Professor of History, University of Bristol)











All the articles are well written and contain much in the way of facts rather than generalisations as one would expect from the academic authors but still of much interest to ordinary readers. (Cornwall FHS Journal, No. 125, September 2007)
