A Brief History of the Cornish Language, its Revival and its Current Status Siarl Ferdinand, University of Wales Trinity Saint David Abstract Despite being dormant during the nineteenth century, the Cornish language has been recently recognised by the British Government as a living regional language after a long period of revival. The first part of this paper discusses the history of traditional Cornish and the reasons for its decline and dismissal. The second part offers an overview of the revival movement since its beginnings in 1904 and analyses the current situation of the language in all possible domains.

Faletra, Reed College ad narracionem pertinent preterita, ad diuinacionem futura —Walter Map1 I. The twelfth century witnessed the heyday of the Merlinic prophecy as a topic of special—and sometimes even obsessive—interest among Eu- ropean literati. The publication of Geoffrey of Monmouth’s Prophetiae Merlini ca. 1135 was doubtless the pivotal moment in the development of the new intellectual hobby of interpreting and glossing the corpus of vaticination attributed to the semi-legendary poet-prophet-magician.2 Within the next two generations, writers as diverse as Gerald of Wales, Suger of St. Denis, Orderic Vitalis, and Alain de Lille had all weighed in with interpretations of Geoffrey’s obscure (indeed, probably obscurantist) prophecies.3 That the glossing of Geoffrey’s work became a fad among the intellectual luminaries of the twelfth century tends, however, to elide the very salient fact that Geoffrey’s presentation of these prophecies represents a co-opting of a thriving native British literary genre. While scholars have noted that Geoffrey’s Prophetiae seem to draw from the same textual well 1.

Orthographies and Ideologies in Revived Cornish
Orthographies and ideologies in revived Cornish Merryn Sophie Davies-Deacon MA by research University of York Language and Linguistic Science September 2016 Abstract While orthography development involves detailed linguistic work, it is particularly subject to non-linguistic influences, including beliefs relating to group identity, as well as political context and the level of available state support. This thesis investigates the development of orthographies for Cornish, a minority language spoken in the UK. Cornish is a revived language: while it is now used by several hundred people, it underwent language death in the early modern era, with the result that no one orthography ever came to take precedence naturally. During the revival, a number of orthographies have been created, following different principles. This thesis begins by giving an account of the development of these different orthographies, focusing on the context in which this took place and how contextual factors affected their implementation and reception. Following this, the situation of Cornish is compared to that of Breton, its closest linguistic neighbour and a minority language which has experienced revitalisation, and the creation of multiple orthographies, over the same period. Factors affecting both languages are identified, reinforcing the importance of certain contextual influences. After this, materials related to both languages, including language policy, examinations, and learning resources, are investigated in order to determine the extent to which they acknowledge the multiplicity of orthographies in Cornish and Breton. The results of this investigation indicate that while a certain orthography appears to have been established as a standard in the case of Breton, this cannot be said for Cornish, despite significant amounts of language planning work in this domain in recent years.

It is widely believed the language died out in the eighteenth century with the death of Dolly Pentreath, the so-called last speaker of the language. What caused the language to become extinct, and why do minority languages fall into disuse? After the subsequent Cornish language revival at the beginning of the twentieth century, what lessons can the language community learn from linguists who have researched language extinction and revival?

It is currently taught through adult education and a correspondence course but has a limited posi- tion within formal and compulsory educational settings. What needs to occur for the language to gain a greater presence in schools, further and higher education? This paper discusses the current position of the language and issues for the language community to consider. This paper considers the history, current position and aims for the future of the Cornish language in formal education. Studies of the history of the language in education, notably include that of MacKinnon for the Government Office of the South-West, and Sayers et alfor the European Research Centre on Multilingualism and Language Learning.1 Ferdinand has examined public views on the status of the language in education in the twenty-first century, and Cornwall Council produces both five-year strategic and annual operational plans.2 The aim of this paper is to address the current presence of Cornish in formal educational settings and whether this could be increased.

It was never intended as an immovable artefact, much less a prescriptive route to standardisation. In this article we consider a case study of standardisation that does demonstrate the four steps of Haugen’s model, but not in the order they were originally presented. This of course would be fine by Haugen, who variously stressed his model’s malleability, for ex- ample that the “four steps … may be simultaneous and even cyclical” (Haugen 1987: 59). Cornwall, administratively a county and a duchy in the extreme southwest of England, is the ancestral home of a language almost lost to history.

The method followed for standardising the Mohawk language was to establish consensus through consultation and to reach final decisions at a conference. This group thought it was a good idea to standardise the language. In fact, I agree with Ken George, who argues that middle and late varieties of Cornish are too far apart to be satisfactorily combined in one orthography. Enlarge cover. What standards in our Mohawk language need to be developed and agreed upon? The consultation process educated the Mohawk speakers on the role of standardisation.

Through this initial consultation, the Project Co-ordinator identified forty-eight possible conference participants to be invited to attend the conference in Tyendinaga. Fluent speakers of the Mohwawk language can automatically work through the process of forming a new Mohawk word for the English term. New words in the Mohawk language are to be formed according to function, characteristics, or activity.

Names, Varieties and Ideologies in Revived Cornish
Studia Celtica Posnaniensia, Vol 2 (1), 2017 doi: 10.1515/scp-2017-0005 NAMES, VARIETIES AND IDEOLOGIES IN REVIVED CORNISH MERRYN DAVIES-DEACON Queen’s University Belfast ABSTRACT The attribution of names is a significant process that often highlights concerns over identity, ideology and ownership. Within the fields of minority languages and Celtic Studies, such concerns are especially pertinent given that the identities in question are frequently perceived as under threat from dominant cultures. The effect of concerns caused by this can be examined with reference to revived Cornish, which became divided into three major varieties in the later twentieth century; by examining the names of these varieties, we can draw conclusions about how they are perceived, or we are invited to perceive them. The motivations of those involved in the Cornish language revival are equally reflected in the names of the organisations and bodies they have formed, which equally contribute to the legitimation of revived Cornish. This paper examines both these categories of name, as well as the phenomenon of Kernowisation, a term coined by Harasta (2013) to refer to the adoption of Cornish personal names, and here extended to the use of Cornish names in otherwise English-language contexts. Examining the names that have been implemented during the Cornish language revival, and the ways in which they are used or indeed refused by those involved, gives us an insight into the various ideologies that steer the revival process. Within the context of the precarious nature of Cornish and Celtic identity, we can identify the concerns of those involved in the Cornish revival movement and highlight the role of naming as an activity of legitimation, showing how the diversity of names that occur reflects an equally diverse range of motivations and influences.

Signature: …………………………………….. 1 Abstract. Employing Cornish Cultures for Community Resilience. Can cultural distinctiveness be used to strengthen community bonds, boost morale and equip and motivate people socially and economically? Using the witness of people in Cornwall and comparative experiences, this discussion combines a review of how cultures are commodified and portrayed with reflections on well-being and ‘emotional prosperity’.1 Cornwall is a relatively poor European region with a cultural identity that inspires an established ethno-cultural movement and is the symbolic basis of community awareness and aspiration, as well as the subject of contested identities and representations. At the heart of this is an array of cultures that is identified as Cornish, including a distinct post-industrial inheritance, the Cornish Language and Celtic Revivalism. Cultural difference has long been a resource for cultural industries and tourism and discussion of using culture for regeneration has accordingly concentrated almost exclusively on these sectors but an emergent ‘regional distinctiveness agenda’ is beginning to present Cornish cultures as an asset for use in branding and marketing other sectors.
