Download The JOURNEYING WITH ABEYANCE: A WELSH CULTURAL APPROACH TO CONTEMPLATIVE CONNECTION WITH THE LIVING WORLD by Joanne Price B.A., University of Birmingham, 1994 M.A., University College London, 2001 A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL STUDIES (Curriculum Studies) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) February 2020 © Joanne Price, 2020 The following individuals certify that they have read, and recommend to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies for acceptance, the dissertation entitled: Journeying with abeyance: A Welsh cultural approach to contemplative connection with the living world. Submitted by Joanne Price in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Curriculum Studies Examining Committee: Dr. Susan Gerofsky Supervisor Dr. Peter Cole Supervisory Committee Member Dr. Pat O’Riley Supervisory Committee Member Dr. Karen Meyer University Examiner Dr. Margot Filipenko University Examiner Dr. Celeste Snowber External Examiner ii Abstract As a response to climate change, this dissertation attends to a Welsh cultural approach to contemplative connection with the living world. In it, I write with auto- ethnography to explore my own cultural background, and relationship with trees and ancestral characters. Trees are vital to this journey with abeyance, a word I first heard when walking in the rainforests of the Pacific Northwest. Learning that abeyance originated in Wales where I am from, I retreat to this place and from there, connect with the larger patterns of life. Situated in an area of curriculum studies known as eco-poetic life writing, I contemplate the etymology of abeyance and its rootprints abey, abide, abashen, badinage, esbair, and baca. These words make room for encounters with ancestral voices of a ninth century lore-maker Hywel Dda; Gwerful Mechain, an erotic poet from the fifteenth century; a novelist and social entrepreneur, Amy Dillwyn; and my maternal grandmother Phyllis Gittins. Together with these rootprints, voices of my ancestral co-journeyers, and the diverse life-worlds of remote woodland, I have been learning to change the way I think and relate with trees. Realising it is not enough to deny the influence of complex cultural contexts: I invite readers to navigate their own ancestral journeys in relation to places and issues mattering to them. Environmental and contemplative educators may be interested in this way of knowing and connecting with trees and the living world, with culture, words, and ancestors. They may want to delve into their own memories of place and spiritual connections with extended poetic work. They may revisit places and relate with words and the spaces between words in creative, devotional, and regenerative ways equal to the challenge. iii Lay Summary As a response to climate change, this dissertation attends to my cultural background. In it, I journey with the word abeyance, a word that comes from trees and connects to ancestors. Writing within eco-poetic life-writing, I explore the following questions in poetic, contemplative, and in-depth ways: What might it mean to journey with abeyance in the context of climate change? In what ways might this journey contribute to sustainability education and contemplative education? How does this journey create space for unique cultural approaches to contemplative connection with the living world? I journey with words, and the spaces among words, as they gesture to ways of being and becoming with places, and taking care of places and trees as living beings in our communities. iv Preface This dissertation is original, unpublished, independent work by the author, Joanne Price. v Table of Contents Abstract ................................................................................................................................................... iii Lay Summary ......................................................................................................................................... iv Preface ....................................................................................................................................................... v Table of Contents .................................................................................................................................. vi List of Figures .......................................................................................................................................... x Glossary ................................................................................................................................................... xi Acknowledgements ........................................................................................................................... xxi Chapter one: Introduction – Beginning with trees .................................................................... 1 1.1 Where do I come from?

  • A Welsh Classical Dictionary
    A WELSH CLASSICAL DICTIONARY DACHUN, saint of Bodmin. See s.n. Credan. He has been wrongly identified with an Irish saint Dagan in LBS II.281, 285. G.H.Doble seems to have been misled in the same way (The Saints of Cornwall, IV. 156). DAGAN or DANOG, abbot of Llancarfan. He appears as Danoc in one of the ‘Llancarfan Charters’ appended to the Life of St.Cadog (§62 in VSB p.130). Here he is a clerical witness with Sulien (presumably abbot) and king Morgan [ab Athrwys]. He appears as abbot of Llancarfan in five charters in the Book of Llandaf, where he is called Danoc abbas Carbani Uallis (BLD 179c), and Dagan(us) abbas Carbani Uallis (BLD 158, 175, 186b, 195). In these five charters he is contemporary with bishop Berthwyn and Ithel ap Morgan, king of Glywysing. He succeeded Sulien as abbot and was succeeded by Paul. See Trans.Cym., 1948 pp.291-2, (but ignore the dates), and compare Wendy Davies, LlCh p.55 where Danog and Dagan are distinguished. Wendy Davies dates the BLD charters c.A.D.722 to 740 (ibid., pp.102 - 114). DALLDAF ail CUNIN COF. (Legendary). He is included in the tale of ‘Culhwch and Olwen’ as one of the warriors of Arthur's Court: Dalldaf eil Kimin Cof (WM 460, RM 106). In a triad (TYP no.73) he is called Dalldaf eil Cunyn Cof, one of the ‘Three Peers’ of Arthur's Court. In another triad (TYP no.41) we are told that Fferlas (Grey Fetlock), the horse of Dalldaf eil Cunin Cof, was one of the ‘Three Lovers' Horses’ (or perhaps ‘Beloved Horses’).

Moreover, this lamentable behaviour was as rife amongst the clergy as the laity.l Some twenty years later, at the provincial Council of Westminster in 1175, it was proposed that 'the Welsh should not sell churches nor give them in dower nor cling to their kinsfolk nor change wives'. Significantly, this proposition was not enacted in the council's legislation, perhaps because it was deemed unworkable.2 Likewise, at the end of the twelfth century Gerald of Wales noted the prevalence amongst the Welsh of incest, trial marriage, concubinage (reflected in the equal rights of inheritance granted to both illegitimate and legitimate children), the inheritance of ecclesiastical benefices and portionary churches.3 Such criticisms continued in the thirteenth century.
