  • Arguing the Case for Welsh Crime Fiction
    [Dis]solving Genres: Arguing the case for Welsh Crime Fiction Catherine Phelps B.A. Hons (University of Glamorgan), M.A. (Cardiff University) A Thesis Submitted in Candidature for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Cardiff University 2013 Table of Contents Summary i Acknowledgements ii Introduction……………………………………………………………………….................1 Chapter I: The English Imperial Thriller…………………………………………………18 Chapter II: The Emergence of Welsh Crime Fiction…………………………………….53 Chapter III: Socialist Crime Fiction……………………………………………………….91 Chapter IV: Men and Crime……………………………………………………………...122 Chapter V: Women and Crime…………………………………………………………...156 Conclusion………………………………………………………………………………….192 Bibliography……………………………………………………………………………….195 i Summary Walter Benjamin’s suggestion that great literary works not only add to canonical literature but also ‘dissolve’ genres may not seem apt in an examination of crime fiction, a genre noted for its rigidity and structured form. Though much of this mass-marketed, populist fiction cannot be perceived as great literature, nonetheless, some do work to dissolve genres, to re- shape them to different ends. This is especially true of Welsh crime fiction written in English. This thesis posits that there is a wealth of undiscovered Welsh crime fiction written in English and that those neglected works are necessary to the study of both crime fiction and Welsh writing in English. Central to this argument is my assertion that Welsh crime fiction (as it will henceforth be referred as) is a separate genre that contains its own specific tropes and paradigms, markers that are indicative of a certain Welsh cultural identity. As this study also acts as a survey of a previously unexamined area, of necessity, the works under question are the product of a extensive period: from the late-nineteenth century to the present day.

  • Canberra Christian Fellowship (In the Methodist Tradition)
    August 2020 (3) Issue 132 Canberra Christian Fellowship (in the Methodist Tradition) Canberra CCF & CAC services suspended Aboriginal Church until (at least) 6-9-2020 Cadfael These days I don't read a lot, however I do occasionally pick up a book and get engrossed in the story. One author whose work I enjoy is Edith Pargeter (1913-1995), better known to many readers as Ellis Peters, the pen name she used when writing the Cadfael historically based fiction series I have enjoyed. "Pargeter was a private, humane, modest, loyal, intelligent, and scholarly woman.... As a writer she was a realist, immersed in history and attuned to moral questions. She said that she did not find 'vice and evil more interesting than virtue'" "'The thriller', she insisted: 'must be a morality. If it strays from the side of the angels … takes pleasure in evil, that is the unforgiveable sin … It is probably true that I am not very good at villains. The good interest me so much more.'" "Edith Pargeter was herself Anglican and had a deep knowledge of the medieval heritage of the Church." Ellis Peters' character, Cadfael, is someone with whom most can identify in some way. A crusader and sailor, he had much life experience before deciding to opt for a quieter life as a Benedictine monk at Shrewsbury Abbey. He is an astute observer of all that surrounds him and has gained skills that are in demand outside the abbey as well as within, enabling him to gain a freedom to move about the town more so than most of his Benedictine Brothers.

    LLYWELYN AB IORWERTH: THE MAKING OF A WELSH PRINCE Margaret Wrenn Cole A Thesis Submitted for the Degree of PhD at the University of St. Andrews 2012 Full metadata for this item is available in Research@StAndrews:FullText at: http://research-repository.st-andrews.ac.uk/ Please use this identifier to cite or link to this item: http://hdl.handle.net/10023/2558 This item is protected by original copyright Llywelyn ab Iorwerth: The Making of a Welsh Prince Margaret Wrenn Cole Submitted for the degree of PhD at the University of St. Andrews January 2012 ABSTRACT: Llywelyn ab Iorwerth (1173-1140) has long been considered one of the leading heroes of Wales. The life and rule of Llywelyn, known as Llywelyn the Great, is explored in detail in this thesis. The grandson of Owain Gwynedd, ruler of North Wales from 1137-1170, Llywelyn grew up during the period of turmoil following Owain‘s death. After wresting control of Gwynedd from his rival family members in the latter decade of the 12th century, he proceeded to gain recognition as the foremost representative of Wales on the political stage. Although viewed as a legendary hero in Welsh history, poetry and culture, Llywelyn's route to power is more complex than that. The thesis explores the development of the man from rebel and warlord, to leader and spokesman, to statesman, traces the expansion of his hegemony throughout wales, and discusses the methods he used to gain and maintain power. Particular attention is paid to his use of family, marriage, allies, rivals and the church to achieve his goals.
