ROBERT GERAINT GRUFFYDD Robert Geraint Gruffydd 1928–2015
ROBERT GERAINT GRUFFYDD Robert Geraint Gruffydd 1928–2015 GERAINT GRUFFYDD RESEARCHED IN EVERY PERIOD—the whole gamut—of Welsh literature, and he published important contributions on its com- plete panorama from the sixth to the twentieth century. He himself spe- cialised in two periods in particular—the medieval ‘Poets of the Princes’ and the Renaissance. But in tandem with that concentration, he was renowned for his unique mastery of detail in all other parts of the spec- trum. This, for many acquainted with his work, was his paramount excel- lence, and reflected the uniqueness of his career. Geraint Gruffydd was born on 9 June 1928 on a farm named Egryn in Tal-y-bont, Meirionnydd, the second child of Moses and Ceridwen Griffith. According to Peter Smith’sHouses of the Welsh Countryside (London, 1975), Egryn dated back to the fifteenth century. But its founda- tions were dated in David Williams’s Atlas of Cistercian Lands in Wales (Cardiff, 1990) as early as 1391. In the eighteenth century, the house had been something of a centre of culture in Meirionnydd where ‘the sound of harp music and interludes were played’, with ‘the drinking of mead and the singing of ancient song’, according to the scholar William Owen-Pughe who lived there. Owen- Pughe’s name in his time was among the most famous in Welsh culture. An important lexicographer, his dictionary left its influence heavily, even notoriously, on the development of nineteenth-century literature. And it is strangely coincidental that in the twentieth century, in his home, was born and bred for a while a major Welsh literary scholar, superior to him by far in his achievement, who too, for his first professional activity, had started his career as a lexicographer. -

Forms Appendix B Scanning Sources Appendix C Target Addresses Appendix D Graph's Appendix E Sample P.O.P. Package North Wales Police ( UK ) Gwynedd Division Profile of the Division The mountainous heartland of Wales, and of the County of Gwynedd in particular has long been recognised as being of special significance because of its spectacular scenery and cultural traditions. Its dramatic beauty, however, is not - and has not been for many generations - completely natural, but is rather a blend of the forces of nature and the hand of man, both of which continue to shape its development. It is an area steeped in great history, but nevertheless subject of national contemporary socio-economic pressures, and the effects of a vibrant tourist industry. Gwynedd covers by far the largest geographical area (629,000 acres) of the six Unitary Authorities in North Wales, and it extends from the City of Bangor in the North to the Dovey Bridge near Machynlleth in the South, and from Aberdaron near the tip of the Lleyn Peninsula in the west to Abergwyngregyn in the East. (The Gwynedd Police Divisional boundary is coterminous with the limits of the Gwynedd Council Unitary Authority area). Gwynedd's neighbouring Unitary Authorities (and Police Divisions) are Anglesey to the North, and Conwy and Denbighshire to the East, whilst its Southern and South Eastern borders mark the boundary between the North Wales and Dyfed-Powys Police areas. -
The 2015 Election in Wales Was the Failure of Labour’S Much-Vaunted Ground Campaign
The 2015 General Election in Wales Roger Scully Wales Governance Centre Cardiff University [email protected]; @roger_scully http://blogs.cf.ac.uk/electionsinwales/ Abstract This paper examines the 2015 UK general election in Wales. It first outlines the political background to the election, before going on to assess the content and conduct of the campaign and the parties’ relative success in targeting their campaigning efforts. The results are then examined in detail: these show that while Labour, for the twentieth successive general election in Wales, won the most votes and a majority of seats, it also suffered an unexpected net loss of seats; meanwhile the Conservatives won more seats in Wales than at any election since the heyday of Thatcherism. UKIP confirmed their arrival as a serious element of party politics in Wales, but the Liberal Democrats lost more than two-thirds of their 2010 vote. British Election Study data is then used to model the main factors shaping patterns of party support. Finally, the conclusion assesses the implications of the 2105 election for the future of party politics in Wales, and for the 2016 National Assembly for Wales election. Paper presented to the Annual Conference of the Political Studies Association specialist group on Elections, Public Opinion and Parties, Cardiff, September 2015. 1. Introduction The 2015 general election in Wales was, on the surface, a rather undramatic event. In sharp contrast to Scotland, most parties experienced only small changes in vote share from 2010, while only four of the forty Welsh seats actually changed hands. But while inevitably less dramatic than events in Scotland, the election in Wales still had plenty of interest. -
