Supervised by: Professor Menna Elfyn and Dr Jeni Williams Submitted in partial fulfilment for the award of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Creative Writing University of Wales Trinity Saint David 2019 Er cof am fy nhad, Y Parchedig E D Morgan a ddiogelodd drysor. In memory of my father, the Reverend E D Morgan who preserved a treasure. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS With grateful thanks for the generous support of: North America Wales Foundation (Dr Philip Davies and Hefina Phillips) Welsh Women’s Clubs of America (Barbara Crysler) Welsh Society of Philadelphia (Jack R.

Diolch am fod yn gefn. iv Abstract The desire to recognise the richness, humanity, and cross fertilisation of cultures and identities that built today’s America is the starting point for Braids of Song. Its overarching concerns trace the interrelation between immigration, identity and creativity within a Welsh Trans-Atlantic context. Braids of Song is a mixed-genre collection of stories that acknowledges the preciousness of culture; in particular, the music, which is both able to cross different linguistic boundaries and to breach those between melody and language itself. The stories are shared through four intertwined narrative strands in a mixture of literary styles, ranging from creative non-fiction essays and poems to dramatic monologues.

  • Teaching and Learning: Pedagogy, Curriculum and Culture
    Teaching and Learning Teaching and Learning: Pedagogy, Curriculum and Culture provides an overview of the key issues and dominant theories of teaching and learning as they impact upon the practice of classroom teachers. Punctuated by questions, points for consideration and ideas for further reading and research, the book’s intention is to stimulate discussion and analysis, to support understanding of classroom interactions and to contribute to improved practice. Topics covered include: • an assessment of dominant theories of learning and teaching; • the ways in which public educational policy impinges on local practice; • the nature and role of language and culture in formal educational settings; • an assessment of different models of ‘good teaching’, including the development of whole-school policies; • alternative models of curriculum and pedagogy Alex Moore has taught in a number of inner-London secondary schools, and for ten years lectured on the PCGE and MA programmes at Goldsmiths University of London. He is currently a senior lecturer in Curriculum Studies at the Institute of Education, London University. He has published widely on a range of educational issues, including Teaching Multicultural Students: Culturism and Anti-Culturism in School Classrooms published by RoutledgeFalmer. Key Issues in Teaching and Learning Series Editor: Alex Moore Key Issues in Teaching and Learning is aimed at student teachers, teacher trainers and inservice teachers including teachers on MA courses. Each book focusses on the central issues around a particular topic supported by examples of good practice with suggestions for further reading. These accessible books will help students and teachers to explore and understand critical issues in ways that are challenging, that invite reappraisals of current practices and that provide appropriate links between theory and practice.

  • 1875–2012 Dr. Jan E. Wynn
    HISTORY OF THE DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICS BRIGHAM YOUNG UNIVERSITY 1875–2012 DR. LYNN E. GARNER DR. GURCHARAN S. GILL DR. JAN E. WYNN Copyright © 2013, Department of Mathematics, Brigham Young University All rights reserved 2 Foreword In August 2012, the leadership of the Department of Mathematics of Brigham Young University requested the authors to compose a history of the department. The history that we had all heard was that the department had come into being in 1954, formed from the Physics Department, and with a physicist as the first chairman. This turned out to be partially true, in that the Department of Mathematics had been chaired by physicists until 1958, but it was referred to in the University Catalog as a department as early as 1904 and the first chairman was appointed in 1906. The authors were also part of the history of the department as professors of mathematics: Gurcharan S. Gill 1960–1999 Lynn E. Garner 1963–2007 Jan E. Wynn 1966–2000 Dr. Gill (1956–1958) and Dr. Garner (1960–1962) were also students in the department and hold B. S. degrees in Mathematics from BYU. We decided to address the history of the department by dividing it into three eras of quite different characteristics. The first era (1875–1978): Early development of the department as an entity, focusing on rapid growth during the administration of Kenneth L. Hillam as chairman. The second era (1978–1990): Efforts to bring the department in line with national standards in the mathematics community and to establish research capabilities, during the administration of Peter L.

  • Rio Mesa Center an Outdoor Lab on the Colorado Plateau
    IMPACTTHE UNIVERSITY OF UTAH DEVELOPMENT NEWSLETTER WINTER 2015-16 Rio Mesa Center An Outdoor Lab on the Colorado Plateau Imagine an ancient floodplain with a wild river, surrounded by towering cliffs and red-rock canyons… A place to learn about the ecological, cultural, and geological wonders of southern Utah… A place served by ecologically-sensitive facilities for research, education, and other academic pursuits… This is the vision for Rio Mesa Center. Looking east from the Rio Mesa campground Photo by Philipe Cohen The University of Utah received an early Christmas present in mid-December when it took ownership of the Rio Mesa Center, located in the red-rock country of southeastern Utah. The 400-acre property is a gift to the U from Texas busi- nessman and philanthropist David Bonderman, who bought the property in 2008. David serves on the boards of several national environmental organizations and was committed to protecting the site from development. He found an enthu- siastic partner to join him in that effort in the University of Utah, which had been managing the site since 2006. Now, with the transfer of ownership to the U completed, David’s initial intention to protect the land is assured. Written into the site’s master plan is a pledge to preserve the integrity and open “wildness” of the site while promoting restoration and exploration of the natural world. Rio Mesa Center is located about 40 miles northeast of Moab along a three-mile stretch of the Dolores River. Archaeolog- ical findings indicate that the area has been occupied, at least intermittently, for the last 4,000 to 5,000 years.
