  • Cornishness and Englishness: Nested Identities Or Incompatible Ideologies?
    CORNISHNESS AND ENGLISHNESS: NESTED IDENTITIES OR INCOMPATIBLE IDEOLOGIES? Bernard Deacon (International Journal of Regional and Local History 5.2 (2009), pp.9-29) In 2007 I suggested in the pages of this journal that the history of English regional identities may prove to be ‘in practice elusive and insubstantial’.1 Not long after those words were written a history of the north east of England was published by its Centre for Regional History. Pursuing the question of whether the north east was a coherent and self-conscious region over the longue durée, the editors found a ‘very fragile history of an incoherent and barely self-conscious region’ with a sense of regional identity that only really appeared in the second half of the twentieth century.2 If the north east, widely regarded as the most coherent English region, lacks a historical identity then it is likely to be even more illusory in other regions. Although rigorously testing the past existence of a regional discourse and finding it wanting, Green and Pollard’s book also reminds us that history is not just about scientific accounts of the past. They recognise that history itself is ‘an important element in the construction of the region … Memory of the past is deployed, selectively and creatively, as one means of imagining it … We choose the history we want, to show the kind of region we want to be’.3 In the north east that choice has seemingly crystallised around a narrative of industrialization focused on the coalfield and the gradual imposition of a Tyneside hegemony over the centuries following 1650.

  • Summary of Sensory Team Manager Duties
    Link to thesis website Chapter 6 Competing speech communities Chapter 6 Competing speech communities The final chapter of this section focuses on the evolution of folk tradition, and the new spaces created for performance, within the Celto-Cornish movement through the latter half of the twentieth century to the current era of festival culture and Pan- Celticism. It makes the case that the Celto-Cornish movement and the folk revival that arrived in Cornwall in the sixties represent different speech communities, which competed for ownership of oral folk tradition and the authenticity it represented. It must be also be recognised that there is a third speech community with a stake in the celebration of tradition, the local community within which it takes place. One outcome of these competing speech communities is the way in which the same folk phenomena will be used to express quite different identities. The Padstow May Day festivities for example are a celebration that firstly represents a sense of the towns community1 and secondly a Celto-Cornish tradition2 but at the same time is used as an icon by the English Folk Dance And Song Society.3 Underlying this discussion, however, must be the recognition that identity is chaotically unique for each individual and each group of individuals, all of which are at the centre of a “complex web of being”.4 In order to pursue this argument it is first necessary to revisit and examine more closely what is meant by a speech community and how this might affect performance and meaning within oral folk tradition.

  • It Just Belongs to Be! Traditional Music and Cornish Identity London Cornish Association Rosyer Lecture 11Th July 2008 Merv Davey “It Just Belongs to Be”
    “It Just Belongs To Be” It Just belongs to be! Traditional Music and Cornish identity London Cornish Association Rosyer Lecture 11th July 2008 Merv Davey “It Just Belongs To Be” Abstract This presentation first explores the early roots of Cornish Folk Music, what is the significance the Cornish Carol tradition and who were the musicians and dancers represented on the 16th Century bench ends at Altarnon Church. Following on from this the activities of the late early 20th century British Folk Revivalists in relation to Cornish tradition are considered together with the quite different approach taken by the Celtic revivalists in Cornwall. Lastly we will look at the ongoing traditions of today and how they reflect both the past and modern Cornish identity. “It Just Belongs To Be” Folk A genre of music derived initially from a 19th C folkoric notion of a rural cultural idyll which embraced a broader “peoples music” mindset from the 1950s to include industrial songs and an increasing body of newly composed material in “folk Style”. In the past 40 years it has been increasingly driven by commercial and artistic interests so that it is useful to distinguish the term from “tradition “It Just Belongs To Be” Tradition The active process by which a phenomena such as a tune, song or custom changes and evolves within community usage as it is transmitted from one person to the next and one generation to the next. Although influenced by popular, commercial and art culture, it is ultimately driven by the experiences, perceptions and values of a community or an individual reflecting that community “It Just Belongs To Be” Cornish Identity Identity is a sense of being defined by an individual or groups perceptions and understanding of their relationship with other individuals or groups.

Marion, a graduate of MIT, was the first female architect licensed to practice, worldwide. She was highly regarded as a draughtsman and illustrator. Griffin, 35 and Mahony, 40, married in 1911, when the international competition for the design of Canberra was under way. Walter’s design, supported by Marion’s drawings, won the competition in 1912.

  • Perranporth and Portreath Area Youth Hostels
    YHA (England and Wales) Youth Hostel Profile compiled by the Association’s volunteer archivist, John Martin, rev2020-01-01 Perranporth and Portreath area Youth Hostels Wheal Kitty (St Agnes) Youth Hostel 1936 to 1939 or 1940 Wheal Kitty Hostel, St Agnes, Cornwall Historic County: Cornwall YHA Region: Devon & Cornwall GR: SW 724513 approx. Note: the Grid Reference is based loosely on the rough sketchmap from the Regional Guide, shown below. The 1936 YHA handbook announced that Wheal Kitty (also called St Agnes) youth hostel was to open at Easter in that year. It consisted of substantial timber huts, possibly barrack or service huts connected with the former tin mines, closed by 1930. They could hold 40 hostellers. The warden in 1937 was Mr Weymouth-Wilson. Accommodation may have expanded to as many as 49 in that year, though evidence is conflicting. 1 2 1: Wheal Kitty youth hostel – sketch map and information from the 1937 regional guide; 2: cyclists arrive at their Cornish destination. The precise location of the huts is yet to be determined, but they were probably close to the modern business park of the same name that uses both the traditional tin mine complex and newer buildings. Another guide book placed the hostel at two minutes’ walk from Peterville (both author’s collection) 1 Charles Allan was YHA’s regional secretary in Devon and Cornwall in the 1930s. Almost 50 years later, he recalled in great detail the way this hostel was run: A hostel building situated within the boundary of the Old Wheal Kitty mine workings.

  • Music and the Cornish Way of Life Barbara Gardner-Bray
    Music and the Cornish way of life Barbara Gardner-Bray. November 2010 Simply put, Cornish music is folk music which uses simple instrumentation. It was and is a statement of the times, not unlike the Celtic music of Ireland, Scotland and Wales. Over the years, music has played an important part in most occasions in Cornwall, be they holidays such as Christmas, festivals and celebrations such as May Day, county fairs or everyday life occurrences, such as marriages, burials, harvest time and so on. HOLIDAYS Christmas In the 19th century, carol or “curl” singing formed a prominent part of the festive season. Choirs would memorize carols as they generally couldn’t read music. They would travel from village to village, singing carols such as the “Seven Joys of Mary”, the “Holy Well”, and the “Holly and the Ivy”. A typical Christmas song of the 19th century went like this: “Welcome Christmas which brings us all good cheer Pies and puddings, roast pork and strong beer” Then the chorus reads “Come let me taste your Christmas beer That is so very strong And I do wish that Christmas time With all its mirth and song Was twenty times so long” As with other Cornish music, carols were introduced wherever the Cornish lived in the new world and old. 1 Richard Jose One Cornish singer of note was Richard Jose. Richard was born on June 5, 1862 in Lanner, Cornwall. He always said that he was born in 1869 so he would appear to be younger. He sounded younger than his years as he was a counter tenor (between a tenor and a soprano) which was very rare.
