Ei nodwedd bennaf yw ei mynyddoedd, o ba rai yr Wyddfa yw mynydd uchaf Cymru a Lloegr, yn 3560’ (1085m) o uchder. Mae’r mynyddoedd eraill yn cynnwys y Carneddau a’r Glyderau yn y gogledd, a’r Rhinogydd a Chadair Idris yn y de. Yma ceir llawer o fryndir mwyaf trawiadol y wlad, gan gynnwys pob un o gopaon Cymru sy’n uwch na 3,000 o droedfeddi. Mae llawer o nodweddion rhewlifol, gan gynnwys cribau llymion, cymoedd, clogwyni, llynnoedd (gan gynnwys Llyn Tegid, llyn mwyaf Cymru), corsydd, afonydd a rhaeadrau. Mae natur serth y tir yn gwneud teithio’n anodd, a chyfyngir mwyafrif y prif ffyrdd i waelodion dyffrynnoedd a thros fylchau uchel. Yn ddaearegol, mae’n ardal amrywiol, a fu â rhan bwysig yn natblygiad cynnar gwyddor daeareg. Denodd sylw rhai o sylfaenwyr yr wyddor, gan gynnwys Charles Darwin, a archwiliodd yr ardal ym 1831. Y mae ymhell, fodd bynnag, o fod yn ddim ond anialdir uchel. Am ganrifoedd, bu’r ardal yn arwydd ysbryd a rhyddid y wlad a’i phobl. Sefydlwyd bwrdeistrefi Dolgellau a’r Bala yng nghyfnod annibyniaeth Cymru cyn y goresgyniad Eingl-normanaidd. Felly, hefyd, llawer o aneddiadau llai ond hynafol fel Dinas Mawddwy. O’i ganolfan yn y Bala, dechreuodd y diwygiad Methodistaidd ar waith trawsffurfio Cymru a’r ffordd Gymreig o fyw yn y 18fed ganrif a’r 19eg. Y Gymraeg yw iaith mwyafrif y trigolion heddiw.

G. document 99 quoted in the booklet Symbols of Justice p. 6) I. CAMPAIGN PARTICIPANTS: LEADERSHIP AND ALLIES a. Cymdeithas yr Iaith Gymraeg (The Welsh Language Society, hereafter C.I.G), an organisation started in 1962, mainly by students, response to a call by Saunders Lewis for nonviolent direct action to block the forces contributing to the decline of the Welsh language. Behind C.I.G. are strong traditions of Christian pacifism and nonviolent action by Welsh nationalists. (Saunders Lewis is a nationalist, one of the founders of Plaid Cymru (Party of Wales), and nonviolent activist—one of a group of three who burned down an RAP bombing school in Wales in the mid 1930's after all constitutional means of blocking its being built had failed.) b. Leadership for the campaign came from C.I.G. Prominent figures were Dafydd Iwan and Ffred Ffransis. Many ad hoc groups participated. Groups of professionals, parents, writers, ministers, and even magistrates gave support in various ways --when the chairman of C.I.G. (Dafydd Iwan) was in gaol for refusing to pay a fine, a group of magistrates paid the fine and secured his release.

  • Rob Phillips the WELSH POLITICAL ARCHIVE at the NATIONAL LIBRARY of WALES
    Rob Phillips THE WELSH POLITICAL ARCHIVE AT THE NATIONAL LIBRARY OF WALES Llyfrgell Genedlaethol Cymru or The National Library of Wales (NLW) in Aberystwyth was established in 1909, to collect and provide access to the documentary history of the nation. It is a legal deposit library and is therefore entitled to receive a copy of all books, magazines, newspapers etc. published in the United Kingdom and Ireland. The Welsh Political Archive (WPA) is a dedicated programme within the Library, established in 1983, to collect, catalogue and promote archival material which reflects the political life of Wales. There is one staff member who coordinates the WPA’s activities, answers enquiries, promotes the archive and works to attract archives to add to the collection. Organising and cataloguing archives is undertaken by staff in the NLW’s Archives and Manuscripts Section. But as the political collections include tapes of radio and television programmes, photographs, works of art, electronic files and websites, the WPA works across departments within the National Library. In addition to curatorial work, the Welsh Political Archive also works to promote the use of the political collections through lectures and exhibitions. An advisory committee (comprised of representatives of political parties and civil society, journalists and academics), guiding the work of the WPA, meets annually. Rob Phillips, ‘The Welsh Political Archive at the National Library of Wales’, in: Studies on National Movements, 3 (2015). http://snm.nise.eu/index.php/studies/article/view/0310s Studies on National Movements, 3 (2015) | SOURCES Collections Many of the political archives the NLW holds are personal collections of well-known political figures (Members of Parliament, Lords, Members of the European Parliament and Assembly Members); the formal records of a large number of political organisations – including the main political parties, campaign groups, referendum campaigns – and business and labour groups constitute another important part.

    Painting the World Green: Dafydd Iwan and the Welsh Protest Bal...Page 1 of 30 Skip to content Skip to navigation menu Information Services Painting the World Green: Dafydd Iwan and the Welsh Protest Ballad (2005) by Dr E. Wyn James School of Welsh, Cardiff University First published in Folk Music Journal, 8:5 (2005), pp. 594-618. ISSN 0531-9684. This article is based on a paper delivered at the 29th International Ballad Conference, hosted by the Elphinstone Institute, University of Aberdeen, Scotland, August 1999. Copyright © E. Wyn James, 2005, 2006 Abstract Dafydd Iwan, the current President of the Welsh nationalist party, Plaid Cymru, has been a key figure in the significant renewal of national identity Wales has witnessed since the 1960s. While his contribution has been many-faceted, it is arguably as a singer-songwriter that he has been most influential. A master of satirical, political song, his work is a complex plethora of indigenous Welsh and Anglo-American influences, which can only be fully appreciated by being placed in the context of the preservation and modernization of Welsh culture on the one hand, and of the post-war folk revival and the international rights and justice movement of the 1960s on the other. Although not well-known outside Wales, Dafydd Iwan is a figure of international significance, both as an embodiment in a specific cultural context of the singer-songwriter par excellence and as a concrete example of the power and influence of popular song. The first years of the 1960s were rather bleak times for the Welsh nationalist movement.

  • 3 Infographics Instead of One Instead of One
    Information is Power James Kitchener Davies Timeline Infographic PDP: Starting the project : I began the final outcome by looking at the work I produced during the first days of the project. We were put into groups, I had the pleasure of working with Dan and Roxanne. We had to produce three outcomes that co-worked that came from information. We sat down and decided that we would question students and educators around the university on what their favourite colours were. We noted things that were said and took note on who were males and females, if they were generic colours etc. Whilst questioning a few people asked whether black was a colour and if they were aloud to pick white.. A few people picked colours that wasn’t generic such as teal an maroon. This gave us a basis on what the three outcomes would be. We agreed that Roxy would be in charge of the whole data of what was said by females and males, Dan worked with the non generic colours and I worked with the answer of whether black and white was a colour. We decided that we would draw our designs and then come together and pick one idea and go from there. Roxy came up with the idea of the colour picker tool which shows on all adobe softwares, this could be a visual system and colour picker would be the name of the project. I had the idea of using a crayon to show the colours and pin point certain aspects to show the focus points.
