Its starting-point is a series of historical texts in Middle Welsh which, from the second quarter of the fourteenth century, begin to appear together in manuscripts to form a continuous history, termed the Welsh Historical Continuum. The central component of this sequence is a translation of Geoffrey of Monmouth’s influential history of the Britons. The main questions of the first part of the thesis are when and why these historical texts were first combined, and to what degree this Welsh historiographical phenomenon reflects broader European trends.

  • 1950 Scrapbook Compile
    Welsh National Agricultural Society And Royal Welsh Agricultural Society Welsh Pony and Cob Winners 1904 -1950 Scrapbook compiled by David Davies The Welsh National Agricultural Society was instigated by Lewes Loveden Pryse of Aberllolwyn, Llanerchaeron, W B. Powell, Nanteos and Vaughan Davies, Tanybwlch. Initially there was much local hostility to the concept, which followed on from the success of the North Cardiganshire Agricultural Show held in Aberystwyth in 1903. An initial meeting was held in the Lion Royal Hotel, Aberystwyth on 1st February. Loveden Pryse gathered many influential supporters from across Wales and after many meetings held in Aberystwyth the society was formed and rules agreed. Earl of Powis was elected President, Vice president, Lord Tredegar and Loveden Pryse, the General Manager. Despite ongoing critics the first show was arranged for the 3rd and 4th August 1904 and was held at the Vicarage fields and then from 1908 the adjacent Plascrug meadow. In the first show in 1904, there were 111 Ponies and cobs entered, compared to 96 in 1905, 101 in 1906, 104, in 1907, 121 in 1908 and 118 in 1909. The Initial shows were a success attracting good entries in all sections and from across Wales, In 1908 the WPCS cob section was given a further boost by the Prince of Wales awarding a cup for the best cob of old Welsh type. Attendance at the first show was 9500 due to the fact that the railway companies laid on cheap excursions from North and South Wales. However, in 1907, there was a train derailment in Abermule and 10 horses and 3 handlers were killed.
