Cornish Studies Volume 21 (Paperback)

The 'coming of age' edition of this acclaimed paperback series discusses contemporary Cornish Studies, as well the Cornish language, medieval and early modern Cornwall, the Duchy of Cornwall, the establishment of the Cornish diocese, Cornish folklore, Cornish wrestling and the Great Emigration, and the writers Arthur Quiller-Couch, Daphne du Maurier, and Jack Clemo, together with an overview of Cornish nationalism and a postscript on John Betjeman and Cornwall. 'The twenty-first issue of Cornish Studies, the last under the editorship of Philip Payton, is a testament to the directions in which he has taken the series during twenty years at the helm. This 'coming of age' edition brings together essays by scholars from Australia, Ireland and Italy as well as the UK and continues Philip Payton's on-going concern with Cornwall's place in an international context. The contributions here speak to the genuinely interdisciplinary identity of a series which remains the definitive site for scholarship and debate about Cornish history, culture, politics and identities'. Rachel Moseley, Associate Professor in Film and Television Studies, University of Warwick
