The twentieth volume in the acclaimed paperback series . . . the
only county series that can legitimately claim to represent the
past and present of a nation. Cornish Studies has consistently -
and successfully - sought to investigate and understand the complex
nature of Cornish identity, as well as to discuss its implications
for society and governance in contemporary Cornwall. Publication of
Cornish Studies: Twenty marks two decades of this internationally
acclaimed paperback series The volume discusses Cornish medieval
and early modern studies, examines the efforts of Cornish language
revivalists past and present, and considers the relation between
Cornish folk tradition and Cornish identity, as well as evaluating
Cornish literature in Cornwall and Australia, investigating the
distinctive features of Cornish politics in the first half of the
twentieth century, analysing the separation of wives and husbands
during Cornwall's 'Great Emigration, and reviewing Cornish mine
accidents. "For the past twenty years, Cornish Studies has stood at
the very heart of the ongoing scholarly conversation over what it
means - and what is has meant - to be Cornish. Interdisciplinary
and internationalist in its approach, the series adopts a wide
variety of perspectives in order to set the people of Cornwall -
and the wider Cornish diaspora - in a truly global context". Mark
Stoyle, Professor of History, University of Southampton
