Eighteenth-century Writing from Wales
Eighteenth-Century Writing from Wales examines Welsh writing in English in the context of recent critical debates concerning the rise of cultural nationalism and the "invention" of Great Britain as a nation in the eighteenth century. This volume represents the first study of Welsh literature in English alongside this literary negotiation of Britishness, and the group of texts discussed provides an important contribution to the ways in which Anglophone literature from and about Wales imagined the nation and its culture in a range of genres including poetry, fiction, and religious writing.

A Question of Upbringing
'He is, as Proust was before him, the great literary chronicler of his culture in his time.' GUARDIAN 'A Dance to the Music of Time' is universally acknowledged as one of the great works of English literature. Reissued now in this definitive edition, it stands ready to delight and entrance a new generation of readers. In this first volume, Nick Jenkins is introduced to the ebbs and flows of life at boarding school in the 1920s, spent in the company of his friends: Peter Templer, Charles Stringham, and Kenneth Widmerpool. Though their days are filled with visits from relatives and boyish pranks, usually at the expense of their housemaster Le Bas, a disastrous trip in Templer’s car threatens their new friendship. As the school year comes to a close, the young men are faced with the prospects of adulthood, and with finding their place in the world.
