    English Words ‘The air is always thick with our verbal emissions. There are so many things we want to tell the world. Some of them are important, some of them are not. But we talk anyway. A life without words would be a horrendous privation.’ (from the Introduction) Words and language, keys to human identity, are fascinating subjects. The aim of this book is to arouse curiosity about English words and about the nature of language in general, especially among students who are not intending to specialise in linguistics. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the structure of words, the meaning of words, how their spelling relates to pronunciation, how new words are manufactured or imported from other languages, and how the meaning of words changes with the passage of time. It also investigates how the mind deals with words by highlighting the amazing intellectual feat performed routinely when the right word is retrieved from the mental dictionary during conversation. Words of all sorts are examined—from great poetry, nonsense verse and journalism to advertising. It is demonstrated that in their very different ways they are all worthy of serious study. This textbook is an accessible descriptive introduction, suitable for students of English language and communication, showing how the nature of words can be illuminated by insights from a broad range of areas of linguistics and related subjects. Francis Katamba is Lecturer in Linguistics at Lancaster University. His publications include Morphology (1993) and Introduction to Phonology (1989).

  • Fighting Choirs Choral Singing and the Emergence of a Welsh National Tradition, 1860–1914
    CHAPTER 5 Fighting Choirs Choral Singing and the Emergence of a Welsh National Tradition, 1860–1914 Gareth Williams In broad terms, the key determinants in the growth of amateur choral singing in Wales between 1860 and the First World War are: Protestant Nonconformity (different from the Anglican Church of England), whose places of worship functioned as concert halls; the eisteddfod (local and regional competitive musical and literary events, culminating in an annual week-long national fes- tival); industrialization (notably the dramatic growth of the south Wales coal- field); and an accelerating demography which saw the population of Wales quadruple in the course of the nineteenth century. These were the critical fac- tors that shaped the musical life of Wales down to the 1920s, when the onset of industrial depression derailed all these engines of growth. Within this framework amateur choral societies were formed in nearly every industrial township. Parallel developments like the temperance choral unions in mid-century and the Tonic Sol-fa movement (doh, ray, mi) from the 1860s instilled discipline and a basic musical literacy among chapel congrega- tions, so that the local choral societies which emerged in the 1860s were based on chapel choirs and adopted a predominantly religious repertoire. These new industrial communities, lacking the benefit of aristocratic patrons, centres of sophisticated taste, cities, princely courts, or (until the late nineteenth cen- tury) even universities, literally found their voice and their identity in collective musical articulation in the form of congregational singing festivals, choral con- certs and competitions, and, for the talented, individual vocal and (to a lesser extent, for these were materially poor working-class communities) instrumen- tal expression.
