  • Recent Research on Parks, Gardens and Designed Landscapes of Medieval North Wales and the Shropshire Marches
    Recent Research on Parks, Gardens and Designed Landscapes of Medieval North Wales and the Shropshire Marches Spencer Gavin Smith My PhD thesis is on the topic of ‘Parks, Gardens and Designed Landscapes of Medieval North Wales and the Shropshire Marches’ and I am grateful to the Editor for allowing me the opportunity to present some aspects of my research in this publication. The aim of my thesis is to examine the archaeological, historical, literary and visual arts evidence for the existence, distribution and use of medieval parks, gardens and designed landscapes associated with castles and related high- status occupation in North Wales and the Shropshire Marches. Digital mapping will be produced as part of the thesis in order to ensure that the data collated can be made available to researchers, academics and organisations who may find this information useful and relevant to their own remit or field of interest. The decision to undertake this thesis stems from the research, survey and excavation I directed at Sycharth Castle (Denbighshire) situated in the valley of the river Cynllaith to the south west of Oswestry (Shropshire). The llys or court at Sycharth and its surrounding landscape was the subject of a cywydd or praise poem composed c.1390 by the poet Iolo Goch. George Borrow translated the poem for his travelogue ‘Wild Wales’, first published in 1862 (Rhys (ed.) 1910) and the poem has subsequently been quoted in part by Higham and Barker (1992: 144-146 and 300-303), Landsberg (2004: 11), Creighton (2002: 179-180, 2009: 101) and Liddiard (2005: 116-117) when writing about an idealised medieval landscape in their publications on castles and medieval landscapes.

  • The History of Fulk Fitz-Warine
    The History of Fulk Fitz-Warine translated by Alice Kemp-Welch with an introduction by Louis Brandin In parentheses Publications Old French Series Cambridge, Ontario 2001 Introduction Previous Translations. The manuscript in the British Museum (MS. Reg. 12, c. xii) which contains the history now specially translated for the ÒKingÕs ClassicsÓ by Mrs. Kemp-Welch, has been several times publishedÑin 1833 by Sir Thomas Duffus Hardy, in 1840 by Francisque Michel, in 1855 by Thomas Wright for the Warton Club, in 1858 by L. Moland and C. dÕHŽricault in their Nouvelles fran•oises en prose du xive s., and in 1875 by Joseph Stevenson, at the end of Radulph de CoggeshallÕs Chronicon Anglicanum (Rolls Series). It has been translated into English by Thomas Wright and Joseph Stevenson, in their works above alluded to; it has been examined critically in the same works, as well as in the edition of Francisque Michel, and in the article by Paulin Paris in Histoire LittŽraire de la France (vol. xxvii, pp. 164Ð186); it has been noticed and epitomized by Leland and by Sir Thomas Duffus Hardy; it has been made use of by Thomas Wright in his History of Ludlow; and the general results of the works of which it has formed the subject-matter have been well summarized, reviewed, and greatly enriched by Mr. H.L.D. Ward in his Catalogue of Romances in the Department of MSS. in the British Museum (vol. I, pp. 501Ð508). Ambiguous Character of the Text. Sir Thomas Duffus Hardy, on p. 41 of Vol. 3 of his Descriptive Catalogue of Materials relating to the history of Great Britain and Ireland to the end of the reign of Henry VII (London, 1871), has already recognized the ambiguous character of this work.
