Supervised by: Professor Menna Elfyn and Dr Jeni Williams Submitted in partial fulfilment for the award of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Creative Writing University of Wales Trinity Saint David 2019 Er cof am fy nhad, Y Parchedig E D Morgan a ddiogelodd drysor. In memory of my father, the Reverend E D Morgan who preserved a treasure. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS With grateful thanks for the generous support of: North America Wales Foundation (Dr Philip Davies and Hefina Phillips) Welsh Women’s Clubs of America (Barbara Crysler) Welsh Society of Philadelphia (Jack R.

Diolch am fod yn gefn. iv Abstract The desire to recognise the richness, humanity, and cross fertilisation of cultures and identities that built today’s America is the starting point for Braids of Song. Its overarching concerns trace the interrelation between immigration, identity and creativity within a Welsh Trans-Atlantic context. Braids of Song is a mixed-genre collection of stories that acknowledges the preciousness of culture; in particular, the music, which is both able to cross different linguistic boundaries and to breach those between melody and language itself. The stories are shared through four intertwined narrative strands in a mixture of literary styles, ranging from creative non-fiction essays and poems to dramatic monologues.

Having played the instru- ment for, then, almost two decades, I thought that a novelist would not, could not, feature specialty instruments such as the C-melody sax if he did not play the horn himself. Once the saxophone had caught my attention, I noticed all sorts of uncommon references that seemed to confirm my hunch that Thomas Pynchon himself played the instrument: McClintic Sphere’s 4½ reed, the contra- bass sax of Against the Day, Gravity’s Rainbow’s Charlie Parker passage.

  • Joseph Parry in Aberystwyth Text of a Talk Given by Frank Bott to the Aberystwyth Civic Society on May 9Th 2012
    Joseph Parry in Aberystwyth Text of a talk given by Frank Bott to the Aberystwyth Civic Society on May 9th 2012 I’m sure the name of Joseph Parry will be familiar to most of you, if only because of the Joseph Parry Hall in Laura Place. But for those of you who are not quite sure who he was or why I should be talking about him, the best thing I can say is that he was the composer of the hymn tune Aberystwyth, which has carried the name of this town across most of the English-speaking world. The tune was written by Parry, when he was Professor of Music here, indeed, the first professor of Music in Wales. It was first sung in 1879 in the English Congregational Chapel in Portland Street, which is now the Church Surgery and on the front of which the Civic Society has placed a plaque commemorating the occasion. You may also be familiar with Joseph Parry from the television mini-series shown in 1983. This was an adaptation of a biographical novel about Parry, written by the Anglo-Welsh novelist, Jack Jones, from the Rhondda, called “Off to Philadelphia in the Morning”. It starred David Lyn as Joseph Parry and Siân Phillips as Myfanwy Llywellyn, Parry’s childhood sweetheart (according to Jack Jones) who became a famous opera singer. It is a very enjoyable novel and was a great success on television. Unfortunately, although Jack Jones never claimed the work was anything other than a fictionalised biography, much of what he invented has become generally accepted as true.

  • 'The College by the Sea' and Its Photographs
    ‘The College by the Sea’ and its photographs Introduction The University College of Wales, Aberystwyth (now Aberystwyth University) was founded in 1872 after years of struggle. During this period Scotland had its four well-established universities: Edinburgh, Aberdeen, Glasgow and St Andrews. England fared less well but had the ancient institutions of Oxford and Cambridge plus the newcomers Durham, King’s College and University College in London, and Owen’s College in Manchester. Ireland was blessed with Trinity College Dublin and the new Queen’s Colleges at Cork, Belfast and Galway. Only Wales was without a place of higher education (apart from St David’s College, Lampeter and other religious colleges). The effort to rectify this omission gathered pace during the nineteenth century. The story is in many ways a romantic one. The setting up of local committees in Wales, and in English cities such as London and Manchester, helped to further the cause, and money was collected in order to establish the foundation when all the pieces were deemed to be in place. The details have been set down on a number of occasions and will not be repeated here. 1 Suffice to say that Aberystwyth was not a well thought out location for the College, and indeed would have had few supporters in a referendum. It was rather the coming of the railway, the erection of hotels en route, the economic downturn of the 1860s and the bankruptcy of the speculator Thomas Savin which led to the unfinished Castle Hotel in Aberystwyth being put up for sale. The building was purchased and after a few hesitations the University College of Wales (UCW) opened its doors to a handful of students in October 1872.

  • Chapter 5 Vision of Tiresias: a Review of Kipling's Poetry
    Chapter 5 Vision of Tiresias: A Review of Kipling’s Poetry While referring to the duality in Kipling’s creative art, Harold Orel writes: Rudyard Kipling’s history as a writer illustrates one of the most serious problems in modern criticism, the relationship between members of the Establishment (in both England and the United States) and writers who, for one reason or another, do not seem to satisfy the Establishment’s expectations of what they should be saying and writing (213, italics author’s). It is this area where Kipling refuses to endorse the stance of the Establishment and offers alternative viewpoints that attracts the attention of Kipling scholars in the postcolonial period. In his personal life, too, Kipling chose to stay miles away from the formality and grandeur of the officialdom of the Raj. His refusal of the ‘Knighthood’ offered to him in 1899 and 1903 by Lord Salisbury and Balfour consecutively, bears evidence to this statement (Carrington 393). The same accounts for his refusal to join the royal party thrown in the honour of the Prince of Wales (later King George V) in 1903 and 1911 on the occasion of his trip to India (393). All these instances only hint at Kipling’s notion of the Empire, which far from being monolithic, is replete with contradictions and subversive ironies. In this chapter I am going to focus on several of his poems bearing testimony to his gradual disillusionment with the Raj. A good number of poems such as “The overland Mail” (1886) or “The White Man’s Burden” (1899) reflect the myth of White superiority.
