“Venus and Adonis” by Ovid and Shakespeare (Kirstin Runge) From Diogenes to Appiah, Ovid to Shakespeare, from Jacobean to Edwardian England, from gender approaches to revising theories of identity: The Bachelor’s and Master’s theses collected in this volume are concerned with changes in various forms. Some chart the transmutation of a literary idea or motif into a different time or genre, others transfer concepts to new surroundings and test their Frauke Reitemeier (ed.) uses. The papers are not restricted to literary topics but cover a broad range of cultural products and contexts, and they are often complementary: While Kirstin Runge charts the transformation of the Adonis story from Ovid to Shakespeare, discussing the functions of the poem for Shakespeare’s Transfers and Transmutations reputation, Anika Droste looks at the practices and representations of violence in Elizabethan and Jacobean England, noting how various Shakespearean plays depict an unstable society by picking up public concerns common to the time. In similar ways, von Blanckenburg’s and Glowsky’s Göttinger Schriften zur Englischen Philologie contributions look at nineteenth-century literature, while Schlink and Helm consider various cultural theories in a very modern context. Together, these papers present change from diverse perspectives, Band 10 political as well as cultural, textual as well as theoretical, and provide the reader with a new insight into literary concepts and ideas throughout the centuries. 2015 Frauke Reitemeier (ed.)

This relationship has also informed superhero comics themselves – going all the way back to Superman’s debut in Action Comics 1 (June 1938). As DC President Paul Levitz says of the development of the superhero: ‘There was an enormous desire to see social justice, a rectifying of corruption. Superman was a fulfillment of a pent-up passion for the heroic solution’ (quoted in Poniewozik 2002: 57).

  • Why Is This Such a Special Exhibition? There Has Long
    Information Classification: PUBLIC Out of the Ordinary / Mes a’n Kemmyn Frequently Asked Questions Why is this such a special exhibition? There has long been the desire to display these treasured manuscripts back in Cornwall, but there hasn’t been a suitable gallery space. A key aspiration of the Kresen Kernow project (funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund and Cornwall Council) was to build a gallery space capable of displaying loans from national institutions. We are delighted that our Treasures Gallery meets all the specific security and environmental requirements. The exhibition has been funded through the National Lottery Heritage Fund grant. What are the manuscripts? The four manuscripts are listed below. They are all fully digitised and available to view online at these links: The Cornish Ordinalia: https://digital.bodleian.ox.ac.uk/objects/e0e7b827-9273-45a8-87ce-7e9f095dfa0c/ Creation of the World: https://digital.bodleian.ox.ac.uk/objects/7ef86de0-65c3-43d2-9431-322e40a0accd/ The Life of St Meriadoc (Bewnans Meriasek): https://www.library.wales/discover/digital- gallery/manuscripts/the-middle-ages/beunans-meriasek/#?c=&m=&s=&cv=&xywh=- 1020%2C0%2C6090%2C4247 The Life of St Kea (Bewnans Ke): https://www.library.wales/discover/digital-gallery/manuscripts/early- modern-period/beunans-ke/#?c=&m=&s=&cv=&xywh=-885%2C-1%2C5849%2C4080 Why are the manuscripts not held at Kresen Kernow? The manuscripts all found their way into other libraries before detailed records were kept. The Cornish Ordinalia (which dates from around 1400) was given to the Bodleian Library by James Button in 1615. It is unknown where it was for the previous two hundred years.

  • 1 Introduction
    12 Chapter 1 Introduction 1.1 Background For commentators such as Urry (1990) and Woodward (2004), contemporary tourism has its roots in religious pilgrimage. Whilst this is contestable, for some domestic and overseas visitors, a holiday may, for a minority, incorporate twenty or thirty minutes in a parish church at some point. The roles have been reversed from travel for religious purposes incorporating secular pleasure, compare The Canterbury Tales and, perhaps, the Camino de Santiago (Murray & Graham 1997), to tourism including a visit or two to a religious establishment as just one of the destination attractions (Busby 2002; Olsen & Timothy 2006; Woodward 2004). “A resurgence of interest in visiting sacred sites” is how Shackley (2002) explains the recent growth in visitor numbers to cathedrals and churches despite a decline in the importance of religion in society as a whole (Wilson 1985). Indeed, this form is argued to be one of the major growth sectors in international tourism (Russell 1999; Woodward 2004). Empirical data to confirm these views is, however, quite limited; in fact, both Olsen & Timothy (2006) and Vukonić (1998) emphasise that it is one of the most under-researched aspects of tourism. Nonetheless, at a time of declining church congregations, it is interesting to note the development of documentaries over the last five years, by the BBC, featuring rural churches; whilst A Country Parish and A Seaside Parish paid only passing attention to the physical structures, A Passion for Churches, launched on 28 December 2005, emphasised the quality of building heritage – mention is also made of visitors‟ book comments in episode one, featuring St Hywyns, Aberdaron.

  • BRENDAN Mcmahon Tradition and Cultural Resistance in Cornwall
    Tradition and Cultural Resistance in Cornwall BRENDAN McMAHON Before the collapse of Roman rule in the fifth century, what is now Cornwall was part of the canton of Dumnonia, an administrative district which had its centre in Exeter.1 Out of the ruins of Roman Britain Dumnonia, comprising Cornwall, Devon and parts of Somerset, arose as one of several successor states resisting Saxon encroachment, though it was eventually to be absorbed by the kingdom of the West Saxons. Many of the Dumnonian people fled overseas to Brittany where their successors still speak Breton, a Celtic language similar to Cornish. The West Saxon King Ine completed the conquest of Devon in the eighth century and Exeter was taken from the Celts, though resistance continued and the English were checked at the Battle of Kehil in 721 or 722.2 The Cornish King Gereint died in battle and was commemorated by the poet Llywarch Hen.3 Later kings, usually described as “shadowy”, include Huwal, king of the west Welsh, who attended Athelstan’s great court in Exeter in 928 AD, as mentioned in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, and “Ricatus”, known only from a single inscription at Penzance, which Philip Payton describes as “a semblance, an echo, an assertion of Cornish kingly independence”.4 Though Athelstan fixed the border at the Tamar he was not able finally to incorporate Cornwall into his new English state, and the “echo” continued to sound up to the eve of the Norman conquest in the far west. Although in ancient times Cornwall had trading links with the Mediterranean, it now ceased to exist as an independent political entity, though it did retain a separate cultural identity.

  • Cornish Dance Music (Ilow Dons Kernow)
    Cornish Dance Music (Ilow Dons Kernow) Merv Davey Written for the Music Kernow series (Cornish Story / Institute of Cornish Studies) In this article Merv Davey takes a look at Cornwall’s oldest musical genre and explores its interaction with our social history. Cornish Dance Group Hevva (Photo: Courtesy of Hevva) This Cornish Story is about the folk dance traditions that have evolved in Cornwall and the music that goes with them. Just as the dance traditions mirror Cornwall’s social history so the tunes that accompany them reflect the influences that have created the modern repertoire of Cornish dance music. The story starts with the Medieval Cornish mystery plays, the ‘Gwary Myr’. They marked a renaissance of the Cornish Language in the middle ages and also give us a context for early dance music in Cornwall. They were a mixture of public entertainment, religious education and political comment and usually performed promenade style in the round. During the course of the play and particularly at the end, musicians are called upon to play for dancing: “Pybugh menstrels volonnek may hyllyn donsia dyson” Pipe ye hearty minstrels that we may be able to dance forthwith. (From the 16th century Mystery Play Beunans Meriasek) The instructions in the Mystery Plays do not describe the music or the dances except to indicate that they should be fast and hearty. The medieval Cornish carols are strongly linked culturally to the mystery plays so that tunes collected in Cornwall, like ‘Tomorrow Shall Be My Dancing Day’ and ‘I Saw Three Ships’, give us a feel for the music that was played.

  • A Guide to Welsh, Cornish, and Breton Verse Welsh Cynghanedd
    A Guide to Welsh, Cornish, and Breton Verse Welsh Cynghanedd The cywydd is perhaps the best-known traditional Welsh verse form, and features heptasyllabic lines grouped in rhyming couplets. In each couplet, a stressed syllable in one line rhymes with an unstressed syllable in the other line. Normally, each line must exhibit one of the four forms of cynghanedd ‘consonance.’ Other types of ornamentation (like cymeriad) are also common. Caru y bûm, cyd curiwyf, I have been loving, though I am languishing, A mwy neu ddeufwy ydd wyf; and I am [now loving] more or twice more [than before]; Cyfragod cariad tradof, watching over a very gentle love, 4 Crupl y cur, croyw epil cof. pain’s cripple, clear offspring of memory. Cadw a orwyf i’m ceudawd I have kept love in my breast, Cariad, twyllwr, cnöwr cnawd. deceiver, gnawer of flesh. Cynyddu, cwyn a wyddiad, It’s increasing (it knew pain) 8 Y mae i’m bron, mam y brad, in my breast (mother of deceit) Cynt no thyfiad, cread craff, quicker than the growth (a powerful creation) Corsen o blanbren blaenbraff. of a rod on a thick-topped planted tree. Ceisio heiniar o garu It was my aim to seek a crop of love 12 Yn briod fyth i’m bryd fu. appropriately and continuously. Cynghanedd Groes : The consonants in the first half of the line repeat in the second half. Consonants at the end of each half-line are often ignored. Y mae i’m bron, mam y brad, Crupl y cur, croyw epil cof. m m br (n) | m m br (d) cr pl (r) | cr p l c(f) Cynghanedd Draws : Like cynghanedd groes, except that one or more consonants at the beginning of the second part of the line do not participate in the cynghanedd.
