Britishness, What It Is and What It Could Be, Is
COUNTY, NATION, ETHNIC GROUP? THE SHAPING OF THE CORNISH IDENTITY Bernard Deacon If English regionalism is the dog that never barked then English regional history has in recent years been barely able to raise much more than a whimper.1 Regional history in Britain enjoyed its heyday between the late 1970s and late1990s but now looks increasingly threadbare when contrasted with the work of regional geographers. Like geographers, in earlier times regional historians busied themselves with two activities. First, they set out to describe social processes and structures at a regional level. The region, it was claimed, was the most convenient container for studying ‘patterns of historical development across large tracts of the English countryside’ and understanding the interconnections between social, economic, political, demographic and administrative history, enabling the researcher to transcend both the hyper-specialization of ‘national’ historical studies and the parochial and inward-looking gaze of English local history.2 Second, and occurring in parallel, was a search for the best boundaries within which to pursue this multi-disciplinary quest. Although he explicitly rejected the concept of region on the grounds that it was impossible comprehensively to define the term, in many ways the work of Charles Phythian-Adams was the culmination of this process of categorization. Phythian-Adams proposed a series of cultural provinces, supra-county entities based on watersheds and river basins, as broad containers for human activity in the early modern period. Within these, ‘local societies’ linked together communities or localities via networks of kinship and lineage. 3 But regions are not just convenient containers for academic analysis. -
A Poetics of Uncertainty: a Chorographic Survey of the Life of John Trevisa and the Site of Glasney College, Cornwall, Mediated Through Locative Arts Practice

The research combines book-based strategies and performative encounters with people and places, to build a rich, chorographic survey described in images, sound files, objects and texts. A key research problem – how to express the forensic fingerprint of that which is invisible in the historic record – is described as a poetics of uncertainty, a speculative response to information that teeters on the brink of what can be reliably known. This poetics combines multi-modal writing to communicate events in the life of the research, auto-ethnographically, from the point of view of an artist working in the academy. -

General Election 2015 Candidate Views on Shooting Sports & Firearms Ownership
General Election 2015 Candidate Views on Shooting Sports & Firearms Ownership Firearms UK is an Association campaigning for the protection of firearms ownership within the UK. Primary objectives are to encourage unity and positive action within the shooting community and to promote and defend individual firearms ownership and the shooting sports. In the lead up to the 2015 General Election we canvased the parliamentary candidates for their views on shooting sports and firearms ownership. We sent an email questionnaire asking seven questions; 1. Do you believe in a total ban on private firearms ownership? 2. Do you believe that private firearms ownership should face greater restrictions? 3. Do you believe the current system is balanced/there is no need for change? 4. Do you support all forms of currently legal shooting in the UK? (If there are exceptions please state) 5. Would you oppose any moves to further restrict private firearms ownership/use in the UK? 6. Do you believe that our firearms laws are in need of reformation and sensible relaxation? 7. If you support UK citizen’s rights to participate in shooting sports do you also support changing the law to permit .22 rimfire pistols to be used for competitive shooting thus allowing ordinary UK citizens to properly train to enable them to compete in international events such as the Olympic and Commonwealth games? We obtained a database of candidate’s details from www.yournextmp.com. The database contained email addresses for 3361 of the 3969 candidates listed. Unfortunately, 183 of these email addresses were incorrect. We managed to correct some of these and sent a follow up email to the candidates. -

Nicholas Brooke Phd Thesis
THE DOGS THAT DIDN'T BARK: POLITICAL VIOLENCE AND NATIONALISM IN SCOTLAND, WALES AND ENGLAND Nicholas Brooke A Thesis Submitted for the Degree of PhD at the University of St Andrews 2016 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/10023/8079 This item is protected by original copyright The Dogs That Didn't Bark: Political Violence and Nationalism in Scotland, Wales and England Nicholas Brooke This thesis is submitted in partial fulfilment for the degree of PhD at the University of St Andrews 30th June 2015 1 Abstract The literature on terrorism and political violence covers in depth the reasons why some national minorities, such as the Irish, Basques and Tamils, have adopted violent methods as a means of achieving their political goals, but the study of why similar groups (such as the Scots and Welsh) remained non-violent, has been largely neglected. In isolation it is difficult to adequately assess the key variables behind why something did not happen, but when compared to a similar violent case, this form of academic exercise can be greatly beneficial. This thesis demonstrates what we can learn from studying ‘negative cases’ - nationalist movements that abstain from political violence - particularly with regards to how the state should respond to minimise the likelihood of violent activity, as well as the interplay of societal factors in the initiation of violent revolt. This is achieved by considering the cases of Wales, England and Scotland, the latter of which recently underwent a referendum on independence from the United Kingdom (accomplished without the use of political violence) and comparing them with the national movement in Ireland, looking at both violent and non-violent manifestations of nationalism in both territories. -
"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. -

Falmouth, Cornwall, England, 1780-1880
THE GENN FAMILY OF CANADA CHAPTER 7 - FALMOUTH, CORNWALL, ENGLAND - 1780-1880 William Genn was born 6 March 1754, in Greensboro, Maryland, and arrived in Falmouth, Cornwall, England, before 1780. He married Phillis Tiddy, by license, in Falmouth, Cornwall, on 3 June 1781. They had three sons and three daughters: *James Genn, born 14 February 1782 Ann Genn, born 10 November 1783 Mary Genn, born 14 May 1785 William Genn, Jr. born 1 June 1788 John Genn, born 18 May 1791 Phillis Genn, born 18 July 1793 Phillis Tiddy (Genn) also went by the name of Philippa and this had introduced some confusion in resolving this chapter of the family history as three of the children were born to Phillis and three were born to Philippa. William Genn's will clearly resolved that Phillis and Philippa are one and the same; all six children are accounted for in his will. Phillis Tiddy's ancestry is presented in Appendix V. William Genn appears to not have been connected with a particular trade or profession. Piggott's directory identifies the family under nobility and gentry. We do know he was a man of considerable wealth, evidenced by his real estate holdings listed in his will. The port of Falmouth was the hub of the "Packet Ship" service which carried mail to the corners of the Empire. As the 19th century began, the English Channel was often blockaded by French revolutionary forces. England relied on the Packet Ships and the port of Falmouth to maintain communications with India, Ceylon, the East Indies, and her interests in South America. -
Conference Confirms Growing Appetite for Devolution
CORNISH CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION PRESS RELEASE – FOR IMMEDIATE USE CONFERENCE CONFIRMS GROWING APPETITE FOR DEVOLUTION A conference held in Truro last Saturday confirmed the Government’s willingness to engage with the issue of devolution for Cornwall. The event was hosted by the Cornish Constitutional Convention, a cross-party organisation campaigning for a Cornish Assembly. It featured guest speakers from the worlds of business, politics and academia, including Camborne, Redruth and Hayle MP George Eustice, now a Minister of State in the new Government. Over 70 people took their seats in the Council Chamber at County Hall to hear a series of short presentations covering a range of devolution topics, from voter attitudes to devolution in Cornwall, to Cornwall Council's Case for Cornwall. The conference concluded with a lively plenary session. The first speaker, John Ault, a Lecturer at the University of Exeter showed that there was a significant level of support for Cornish devolution in Camborne and Redruth from people supporting a wide range of political parties including UKIP. Dick Cole, the Leader of Mebyon Kernow outlined his party’s views on devolution, emphasising that the call for a Cornish Assembly should ring louder and louder. Paul Masters, Corporate Director at Cornwall Council told the conference that the Council was asking the Government for a range of powers including the coordination of public transport and the integration of health and social care provision. “The Government’s door is open” Mr Masters said. The President of Cornwall Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Toby Parkins, said that Cornwall had a fantastic opportunity to move forward.
