There are picturesque harbours and grand country houses set in vast acreages. There are impressive landmarks from the past such as Tintagel Castle, St Michael’s Mount and more standing stones and Neolithic sites than you can shake a stick at. They exist happily alongside the present day futuristic domes of Eden, the stately grey bulk of Tate St Ives, old Mine chimneys (sensibly bestowed with World Heritage status) and the spoil heaps of the clay pits near St Austell. 35 BEST OF CORNWALL 2020 However there is more to Cornwall’s appeal than It was clear that luck landmarks.

Summary of Sensory Team Manager Duties
Link to thesis website Chapter 6 Competing speech communities Chapter 6 Competing speech communities The final chapter of this section focuses on the evolution of folk tradition, and the new spaces created for performance, within the Celto-Cornish movement through the latter half of the twentieth century to the current era of festival culture and Pan- Celticism. It makes the case that the Celto-Cornish movement and the folk revival that arrived in Cornwall in the sixties represent different speech communities, which competed for ownership of oral folk tradition and the authenticity it represented. It must be also be recognised that there is a third speech community with a stake in the celebration of tradition, the local community within which it takes place. One outcome of these competing speech communities is the way in which the same folk phenomena will be used to express quite different identities. The Padstow May Day festivities for example are a celebration that firstly represents a sense of the towns community1 and secondly a Celto-Cornish tradition2 but at the same time is used as an icon by the English Folk Dance And Song Society.3 Underlying this discussion, however, must be the recognition that identity is chaotically unique for each individual and each group of individuals, all of which are at the centre of a “complex web of being”.4 In order to pursue this argument it is first necessary to revisit and examine more closely what is meant by a speech community and how this might affect performance and meaning within oral folk tradition. -
Tam Kernewek
Tam Kernewek “ A bit of Cornish” Volume 32 Issue 3 Fall 2014 Cornish American Heritage Society Cornish American Heritage 48 Presidents’ Messages I can't believe the excitement of the 17th Gathering is over! It has been a whirlwind and a great success. The Cornish Society of Greater Milwaukee pulled it off well, if I do say so myself. Thanks to all the great presenters and Cornish Cous- ins who really made it a family reunion. It was a pleasure meeting many names I had only read before. I am so happy that Kathryn Herman has agreed to take over as president. After two years of working with her on the plan- ning committee, I know she is a woman of great organization and imagination. Her knowledge of Cornwall and connec- tions there will give the CAHS a direction I couldn't give. I will be happy to continue serving as an officer (historian), so I can work on projects for the Society. As I hand over the role of president to Kathryn, I will be finishing up some things started at the Gathering. (And Kathryn deserves to catch her breath!) Our business meeting was cut short. Ultimately that may be an advantage, since some questions might be better addressed via e-mails with the participants, rather than a hurried discussion we would have had there. If any of the CAHS members not present at the Gathering would like to be included in the discussion, please write me. Again, thanks to all for the great Gathering! It is now a matter of continuing the energy we had in Milwaukee. -
Curnow's Cornish Calendar No 11
Curnow’s Cornish Calendar No 11 Porthleven & the 16th Sunday after Trinity 5 October 2003 With a rare free Sunday evening we headed for Porthleven near Helston. An arrangement with Beatrice Kerno-Plummer gave us access to one of her flats overlooking the harbour. Construction of the harbour began in 1811 with demand for coal to supply mines. In 1824 it was completely washed away. In 1855 Harvey and Co from Hayle leased and improved the harbour. Two cannons either side of the harbour were fired at Napoleon’s navy during the battle of Brest. It was Harvest Thanksgiving at Sithney and being the guests of Beatrice we were short on details. It was not surprising that after a look at the harbour that we ended up at Sithney, a little country village not far away to have afternoon tea at the home of Isobel Martin and her son Tom. (Relatives of Rev Robyn Pryor who was a colleague in our Blackburn Parish (Victoria) whom we had visited 12 months before.) Our company included three true blue Cornish ladies and five Cornish Bards, Neil Plummer, Beatrice, Vivian Pryor, Bill and Gwen Phillips from Victoria, Australia. At 5.55pm with the church bell tolling we stepped across the road onto the path of the Churchyard. The Cornish flag enjoyed a stiff breeze on the top on the Bell tower. I noted one slate headstone dated 1789 and it seemed that no one had cut the grass since the 18 Century!!! I was ready to experience a sung Harvest Thanksgiving Evensong. When visiting Cornish Bards and members of the Old Cornish Society were welcomed I realised that we were associating with esteemed company indeed!! Six parallel granite arches stretched the length of the old church with small chapels and altars either side. -

Holiday Party on ZOOM December 5
Holiday Party on ZOOM December 5 FALL 2020 ZOOM MEETING October 17, 2020 was a HUGE success. On October 17, 2020 – the PNCS Group met remotely through Zoom, and it was a successful endeavor that included a unique activity to Celebrate Cornwall. The attendance was terrific with twenty-two members joining in, including Mickey Sieracki, our webmaster, who lives in South Carolina, Judy Berg, a Charter Member, who lives in Fullerton, California, and one member from Ashland, OR, William “Nick” Nicholas. Nick became a member in July 2004 but was never able to make it to a meeting. Bob called on each person to talk about their Cornish connections. We have Chris and Val Ensor, new members, to thank for the idea of having a meeting remotely and for all their hard work at putting together Celebrate Cornwall. We heard from several people that attended about how much they enjoyed the meeting. The following is an email, from Chris which sums up the comments I heard after the meeting. Congratulations … PNCS Board and Members on planning and managing yesterday’s uplifting meeting. It was very moving hearing about so many family histories and journeys from Cornwall to the US. Also, how delighted everyone was at the opportunity to come together. COVID has at least done us a good turn in encouraging us to find a way to hold a gathering without dis- tance and travel barriers. Several members would never have made it to a meeting in either OR or WA. Al- so, thanks to Zoom, just one meeting rather than two was enough. -
BRENDAN Mcmahon Folklore, Loss, and Social Change in Nineteenth
Folklore, Loss, and Social Change in Nineteenth Century Cornwall BRENDAN McMAHON Introduction: the historical context The nineteenth century was a period of unprecedented social and economic change, at least in France and England. From France emerged the possibility of political transformation, which was to have profound historical consequences, and from England the no less momentous possibility of industrial transformation, forces which combined to create a triumphant liberal capitalism, which consolidated and extended its power in the latter half of the century.1 Britain, where much of this process began, was of course a scene of unprecedented social and industrial change at this time. Between 1831 and 1901 the population increased by ten percent in each decade, and cities grew disproportionately: when Victoria came to the throne only five towns in England and Wales had a population of more than 100,000; by the end of the reign, there were twenty three.2 Cornwall too was transformed: the population increased from 192,000 to 322,000, though it fell during the last three decades of the century due to recession and emigration, as we shall see.3 Cornish people played a big part in the transformation of Britain, and the wider world, and it would be hard to imagine the Industrial Revolution without Humphry Davy, Richard Trevithick, and the countless Cornish engineers and miners who made the wheels turn, everywhere from Mexico to South Australia.4 The landscape itself was changed forever. At the beginning of the century Cornwall was the world’s biggest copper producer, and technological innovation caused both copper and tin production to soar; old mines were re-opened and between 1800 and 1837 the number of workings rose from seventy five to over 200. -
"Bringin' the Dunkey Down from the Carn:” Cornu-English in Context
“Bringin’ the Dunkey Down from the Carn:” Cornu-English in Context 1549-2005 – A Provisional Analysis Alan M. Kent (Open University, United Kingdom) 1. Introduction They do tell ’ow Jan ’ad a lil dunkey an kept’n spragged out up Carnmenellis; everybody knawed there was only furze an browse up there, so somebody said to Jan, “Ere. Jan. ’Ow ee come kaype yer dunkey up Carnmenellis? There edn much for’n aate up there, you.” “No,” said Jan. “Edn much for’n aate you – but ee got some ’ansome view!” (Tan- gye 1995: 19f.) In the three previous volumes of The Celtic Englishes, there has been com- paratively little discussion of Cornu-English. Aside from some perceptive re- marks from Payton, in a chapter mainly devoted to the ideology of the Cornish Language Revival (1997: 100-122), no new significant scholarship has emerged. My purpose in this chapter is to offer provisional corrective – metaphorically, bringing Jan’s dunkey down from the Carn – and offer a reassessment of the state of Cornu-English speech and writing within a historical context from 1549 – roughly the period that the English language began to rapidly replace Cornish in the territory of Cornwall, through its subsequent development as the primary linguistic group, to an examination of its current status. I write as an observer and commentator, but also a practitioner of Cornu-English writing. The section quoted at the start of this chapter is from a typical Cornu-English story titled “The Wrasslin’ Match” by Michael Tangye, a prize-winning story in the Dialect Prose competition from the 1994 Cornish Gorseth,1 yet we note that narratives such as this, are for the most part, relatively unchanged from their nineteenth-century counterparts.
