Synopsis The Cambrian Quarterly Magazine and Celtic Repertory, 1831, Vol. 3 (Classic Reprint) by :
Excerpt from The Cambrian Quarterly Magazine and Celtic Repertory, 1831, Vol. 3 We will now make a few observations on sentiments of a different character, though they also are sometimes entertained by men who wish well to their countr It is by them ob'ected, why do you not publish your pamphlets in English? E peasantry are, in many instances, taught English in the schools, and they can read works in the latter tongue with equal profit and pleasure? Our only reply to this is in the simple fact, that the peasantry, as might naturally have been expected, read with more fondness works written in their mother tongue, as a proof of which we need only mention the well-known circumstance, that no less than fourteen periodicals in the Welsh language issue monthly from the press. We feel thoroughly convinced that this system of forcing the English language upon the people on all occasions, in season and out of season, in the service of the church and in the schools, is attended with every possible evil effect, and with no good one: it heightens their foolish prejudices against Englishmen: it makes them hate the English language itself, for the same reason that a schoolboy is taught to detest Latin it stupifies them, and disgusts them with learning, generally, because it is presented to them, in the first instance, in a most ungracious manner, and encumbered with a wanton superfluity of difficulties.

Synopsis National Museums and Nation-building in Europe 1750-2010 by : Peter Aronsson
Europe’s national museums have since their creation been at the centre of on-going nation making processes. National museums negotiate conflicts and contradictions and entrain the community sufficiently to obtain the support of scientists and art connoisseurs, citizens and taxpayers, policy makers, domestic and foreign visitors alike. National Museums and Nation-building in Europe 1750-2010 assess the national museum as a manifestation of cultural and political desires, rather than that a straightforward representation of the historical facts of a nation. National Museums and Nation-building in Europe 1750-2010 examines the degree to which national museums have created models and representations of nations, their past, present and future, and proceeds to assess the consequences of such attempts. Revealing how different types of nations and states – former empires, monarchies, republics, pre-modern, modern or post-imperial entities – deploy and prioritise different types of museums (based on art, archaeology, culture and ethnography) in their making, this book constitutes the first comprehensive and comparative perspective on national museums in Europe and their intricate relationship to the making of nations and states.

Synopsis The Legacy of Courtly Literature by : Deborah Nelson-Campbell
This fascinating volume examines the enduring influence of courtly tradition and courtly love, particularly in contemporary popular culture. The ten chapters explore topics including the impact of the medieval troubadour in modern love songs, the legacy of figures such as Tristan, Iseult, Lancelot, Guinevere, and Merlin in modern film and literature, and more generally, how courtly and chivalric conceptions of love have shaped the Western world’s conception of love, loyalty, honor, and adultery throughout history and to this day.

Synopsis National Museums by : Simon Knell
National Museums is the first book to explore the national museum as a cultural institution in a range of contrasting national contexts. Composed of new studies of countries that rarely make a showing in the English-language studies of museums, this book reveals how these national museums have been used to create a sense of national self, place the nation in the arts, deal with the consequences of political change, remake difficult pasts, and confront those issues of nationalism, ethnicity and multiculturalism which have come to the fore in national politics in recent decades. National Museums combines research from both leading and new researchers in the fields of history, museum studies, cultural studies, sociology, history of art, media studies, science and technology studies, and anthropology. It is an interrogation of the origins, purpose, organisation, politics, narratives and philosophies of national museums.
